Leicester City v Arsenal gets Gameweek 10 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) underway, with kick-off at the King Power Stadium at 12:30 BST. See our Matchday Live if you want to watch along with Gianni!

There were injury and illness concerns for both sides heading into the Saturday lunchtime fixture but in the end, there is only one change across either team from Gameweek 9.

It’s Brendan Rodgers who makes it, as Luke Thomas replaces the injured Ricardo Pereira.

Mikel Arteta, therefore, sticks with the Arsenal side that started the Gunners’ 3-1 victory over Aston Villa eight days ago.

Ben White has been passed fit to start, while Martin Odegaard makes the bench after recovering from injury.

There is still no Kieran Tierney, however, who has been absent with an ankle problem.

Jamie Vardy was passed fit by Rodgers in midweek and is part of a two-pronged strike force alongside Kelechi Iheanacho.

Vardy has 11 goals and one assist in his 13 previous Premier League meetings with the Gunners, averaging a round 7.0 points per match.

The veteran striker, owned by almost one-third of all FPL managers and just over 50% of the top 10,000, is the most popular player on show in this fixture.

GAMEWEEK 10 LINE-UPS

Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Castagne, Amartey, Evans, Soyuncu, Thomas, Tielemans, Soumare, Maddison, Iheanacho, Vardy.

Subs: Ward, Bertrand, Barnes, Choudhury, Dewsbury-Hall, Vestergaard, Ndidi, Daka, Lookman

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, White, Gabriel, Tavares, Partey, Lokonga, Saka, Smith Rowe, Aubameyang, Lacazette.

Subs: Leno, Odegaard, Maitland-Niles, Holding, Soares, Pepe, Elneny, Kolasinac, Martinelli

    Smith Rowe assist?

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      5 years, 9 days ago

      He's had his points for the season

      1. OPTA FPL
        5 years, 9 days ago

        1. Mr. O'Connell
          5 years, 9 days ago

          I own him and I genuinely believe this. Last week's haul a bit of a fluke as well.

        5 years, 9 days ago

        You were saying?

      5 years, 9 days ago

      Yea, he’s my first bench. Like everyone else’s ESR last week. Love a good bench.

  3. AC/DC AFC

    Schmeichel and the Leicester defence true to form.

    Didn't take them long this weekend!

  4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Auba close

    Arsenal tearing Leicester apart here

    1. Gunneryank
      5 years, 9 days ago

      You love to see it

  5. Rash
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Vardy assist?

    1. SINGH
      5 years, 9 days ago

      No

    2. DycheDycheBaby
      5 years, 9 days ago

      Didn't even touch it lol

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      5 years, 9 days ago

      How could he assist Arsenal?

  6. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Auba decent chance

  7. The Senate
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Yay Vardybassist right?

  8. Paqueta Rice
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Saka assist

  9. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Another poor mistake from Amartey nearly lets Auba score.

  10. JONALDINHO
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Why do Arsenal always have to score early. Won’t get the cleanie now

  11. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    5 years, 9 days ago

    This is what happens when you start Amartey Brendan

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      5 years, 9 days ago

      Defence has been terrible this season

    2. Paqueta Rice
      5 years, 9 days ago

      Amartey had nothing to do with it

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        5 years, 9 days ago

        Nothing to do with what?

  12. Gunneryank
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Howay the lads! 1 nil to the Arse! Gabriel quietly having a strong season.

    1. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      5 years, 9 days ago

      Unbeaten in the last 6 since Gabriel returned to the side.

      1. Gunneryank
        5 years, 9 days ago

        Coincidence? I think not! Also helps that Partey and White are playing well, and we are just defending much better as a team.

  13. Paqueta Rice
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Vardys touch, if there even was one, didn’t alter the intended destination of the cross. Non Saka owner here but that is surely an assist for him

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      5 years, 9 days ago

      There's no debate, it's his assist.

  14. Ruinenlust
    5 years, 9 days ago

    How does Vestegaard not start?

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      5 years, 9 days ago

      Too slow

      1. OPTA FPL
        5 years, 9 days ago

        Then why bought him?

        1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
          5 years, 9 days ago

          Probably realised it was a mistake after signing him

          Don’t think he fits them personally. Never thought he was technically good anyway but maybe he will come good later

      2. Jafooli
        5 years, 9 days ago

        Dial up?

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      5 years, 9 days ago

      His name is Dutch for does not start.

    3. SouthCoastSaint
      5 years, 9 days ago

      Because he was an awful signing that just had a purple patch of 10 games or so with us

  15. lordkippe
    5 years, 9 days ago

      5 years, 9 days ago

  17. jason_ni
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Have double arsenal defence, and started neither, so you can be sure they have banked the cs.
    Do own saka though, so this week is already better than last weeks!

  18. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    5 years, 9 days ago

    Reckon it’s Saka’s turn to haul this GW
