Latest Arsenal vs Leicester City squad information
With Trossard's ban covering all competitions, the Belgian returned to Mikel Arteta's squad after missing the win over Bolton.
Reserve goalkeeper Neto, on loan from Bournemouth, could make his Arsenal debut, while David Raya remains a doubt after picking up a muscle injury at the Etihad. Jurrien Timber's involvement is also unclear, having missed the midweek win through injury. Myles Lewis-Skelly also picked up an injury on Wednesday but is not expected to feature.
Arsenal are facing a serious injury crisis, with Martin Odegaard (ankle), Mikel Merino (shoulder), Takehiro Tomiyasu (knee), Kieran Tierney (hamstring) and Oleksandr Zinchenko (calf) all out injured. However, the team could still return to their full strength squad for their Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain.
Leicester, on the other hand, have few injury problems, with only Patson Daka and Jakub Stolarczyk nursing ankle injuries. There will be changes to Leicester's line-up, with Ward's excellent performance against Walsall not enough to keep him in goal ahead of Mads Hermansen. Jamie Vardy is also likely to return to the starting line-up, and he's a huge threat to Arsenal, with 11 goals in 16 games against the Gunners in all competitions, second only to Watford.
The match between Arsenal and Leicester promises to be very attractive, with both teams having reasons to be determined to win.

Latest football commentary on Arsenal vs Leicester City
Arsenal put in an impressive performance against Bolton Wanderers in the Carabao Cup, with their youngsters shining. In particular, 16-year-old goalkeeper Jack Porter became the youngest player to appear for the Arsenal first team, despite failing to keep a clean sheet on his debut. Porter's teammate Ethan Nwaneri scored twice, along with goals from Raheem Sterling, Kai Havertz and Declan Rice, as Arsenal eased past Bolton and set up a fourth-round match against Preston North End.
Despite a strong start to the season, Arsenal were left feeling let down by a draw with Manchester City, with only a 98th-minute John Stones goal preventing them from claiming their first win at the Etihad since January 2015. Leandro Trossard’s dismissal prompted Arteta to tweak his defensive approach, but also brought criticism. Arsenal are currently fourth in the Premier League, two points behind Manchester City, with a 70% win rate in 2024 – their best since 1932.
Arsenal have a good record against newly promoted teams at the Emirates, going 39 games unbeaten since being beaten by Newcastle in 2010. Leicester, meanwhile, struggled to find the back of the net against Walsall and had to rely on goalkeeper Danny Ward, who saved all three penalties, to keep them through. However, Leicester are yet to win in the Premier League this season and are 15th, the highest of the six winless teams.
Arsenal will be looking to make it six wins in a row against Leicester, having won each of the last five Premier League meetings between the sides. Vardy, despite returning to the starting line-up, may struggle to find the net at the Emirates. With several key players rested, Arsenal are preparing well for this game, while also looking ahead to their Champions League clash with PSG. Saturday’s game promises to be an exciting one, with Arsenal looking to maintain their high level of form.
