Arsenal Premier League fixture set to be impacted after further rail strike announcements

Arsenal's fixture against Leicester City at the Emirates Stadium will feel the consequences of a fresh rail strike announcement. 40,000 rail workers are taking matters into their own hands following unsuccessful talks to resolve a dispute over pay, jobs, and conditions.

Several strikes have and continue to take place all over the UK, but new plans are set to impact the Premier League clash on August 13. That's because the Aslef union has announced a strike that day which will see train drivers at nine rail companies walk out over pay.

Those companies are believed to include Greater Anglia, Great Western Railway, Hull Trains, LNER, London Overground, Southeastern and West Midlands Trains.
