Leicester City will face a tough test when they host Arsenal on Saturday and the Foxes will have to find a way of not conceding first if they are to maintain their unbeaten record in the Premier League, manager Claudio Ranieri has said.
The Italian’s side are flying high in fourth place, but have conceded first in their last four league fixtures, although they have gone on to salvage one win and three draws in those games.
“Arsenal in my opinion are a very good team — now I will concentrate on how we can win against them,” Ranieri said on the club website.
We must concentrate a little more and be careful because it’s not easy to score a goal when you go down
“They are fantastic, good quality and move the ball very well and very quickly.
“If you want to find a weakness, it’s difficult, but we will try to find it.”
The Italian, who has confirmed that he will be without the services of Nathan Dyer due to a knee injury, called on his players to eliminate the mistakes that have forced them to become comeback specialists over the past few weeks.
