    FT: Leicester 0-2 Arsenal! All over at the KP Stadium and Arsenal take home the points thanks to Gabriel and Smith-Rowe's goal in the first 20 minutes. Leicester picked up after that, but Ramsdale made some outstanding saves whenever Leicester got a clear opportunity. In the end, it was comfortable for Arsenal. Thanks for joining us and see you now for Newcastle v Chelsea!
