Arsenal were in impressive form yet again yesterday as they comfortably defeated Leicester City at the Emirates stadium by two goals to nil.
The Gunners took the lead courtesy of Thomas Partey's header from a corner in the 11th minute, with the Foxes yet again conceding from a set-piece and have leaked the most goals from these situations this season.
Mikel Arteta's men extended their lead in the 59th minute after Caglar Soyuncu handled Partey's header, with Alexandre Lacazette stepping up and dispatching the spot-kick comfortably. The victory means that Arsenal have now made it five wins in succession and are in pole position to finish in this season's top four.

Next up for the north Londoners is Liverpool on Wednesday night, which looks set to be a high octane Premier League encounter. Jurgen Klopp's Reds came out on top at Anfield earlier on in the season, in a comprehensive 4-0 win and have regularly managed to get the better of the Gunners for many years now.
But they could potentially be facing Arsenal without their star man, Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian has been in fine form this season and has once again racked up 20 Premier League goals, the fourth time he has managed this feat in five years.
But prior to the 29 year old converting his penalty kick against Brighton on Saturday, he injured his foot and was substituted moments after his goal. Whilst Klopp stated after the game Salah was not concerned by the problem, the Liverpool Echo report that he missed the club's latest training session.
From Arsenal's perspective, it could be a significant boost as the former Chelsea forward has been a regular thorn within their side. But even if Salah isn't available, the likes of Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz still all pose a serious threat.
