Preview: Leicester City vs. Arsenal

Leicester City vs. Arsenal

Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson may have midfielder Esteban Cambiasso available for the Foxes' home game with Arsenal.

The former Real Madrid and Inter Milan player is awaiting international clearance but if it is granted in time, the 34-year-old could be included in the middle of the park.

The East Midlands side are still looking for their first win of the season after they followed up a draw against Everton with defeats to Chelsea and Shrewsbury Town.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger must decide on whether to make changes to his starting lineup after his team dug deep to see off Besiktas in the Champions League in midweek.

Aaron Ramsey, who was suspended from Wednesday's game, will be included in midfield, while Alexis Sanchez could potentially drop out for Yaya Sanogo after running the Turkish outfit ragged at the Emirates Stadium.

Striker Olivier Giroud, as well as Kieran Gibbs, Mikel Arteta and Theo Walcott, are definitely missing through injury.
