17'
A breathless 60 seconds of football.

CECH SAVE! Albrighton clips a perfect cross from the right to Vardy, whose downward header is brilliantly saved by the Arsenal keeper, who claims it to prevent the rebound.

GAMBLE! Ramsey is sent clean through and Schmeichel makes a bold and very early decision to race 40 yards out of his goal and makes the clearance. Everyone in the stadium held their breath for a moment.

Okazaki appears to be clean through, but the flag rightly goes up against the Japan star, who was foiled by Cech anyway.
13'
Fuchs given plenty of time to pick out Mahrez, but the ball is headed clear.
12'
Arsenal play it short, but Ramsey's cross is deflected and loops safely into Schmeichel's arms.
11'
Koscielny picks out Giroud with a long ball, and the Frenchman forces an Arsenal corner.

PENALTY? Arsenal claim a penalty as the ball appears to strike Kante on the arm. It wasn't clear cut, especially as it was struck from close range by Oxlade-Chamberlain, and the referee says no pen.
9'
It's all Arsenal in the early stages. Leicester being forced into plenty of defending, but they love a scrap, this side. Key to their success has been their ability to soak up pressure and break with speed. That'll certainly be their strategy again here.

It's a valid point.
7'
"We are staying up, we are staying up" the chant from the Leicester end. It's safe to say they're clear of the 40 point mark this season.
6'
Ozil's free-kick almost finds Sanchez but Okazaki gets enough of it to clear.
5'
Drinkwater drawn into a foul on Sanchez in a dangerous area, and the England hopeful gets a ticking off by the referee.
4'
Leicester just trying to take the sting out of Arsenal in these early stages. The home side have started with great intensity. They mean business.
3'
The resulting corner comes in and Sanchez can't quite direct his header at goal.

Arsenal have flown out of the blocks. Oxlade-Chamberlain races clear down the right and looks for Monreal at the far post when he could have pulled the trigger himself.

Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri: "The pressure's on the others. Tell me why we have pressure? Why must I feel pressure? We just continue to dream with our fans. This time I hope the bookmakers are right. They're just words though, not points. Give me points!"
