As of now, Leicester sits in 15^th place below Watford, Bournemouth, and Burnley in the league table. Moreover, if the team doesn’t start winning, it may soon find itself below the likes of Swansea, Hull and Middlesbrough. A question that many soccer fans and pundits are asking is whether Leicester is where it should be. A number of people, the majority of them Leicester fans, argue that the reigning EPL champions are in a false position. According to them, Swansea, Hull and Boro shouldn’t be above Leicester in the league. The counter argument to this is that Leicester has been horrendous this season and deserves to be in the relegation zone. So, this beckons the question: is Leicester where it should be in the EPL table?

The current premier league season is Leicester’s third consecutive season in the top flight of English football. Of the teams mentioned above, only Swansea has had a longer sustained stay in the EPL. Talking about the EPL, you can easily get the latest odds on the best sports to watch on TV. Coming back to the topic, if Leicester was above the likes of Watford, Bournemouth, and Burnley in the table, it would sit in 12^th place: a position most Leicester fans believe the team should hold. Even though it upset the odds and won the league last season, Leicester is a team most people expect to finish mid table.

Most people, including Leicester fans, expected the team to not do as well as they did last season. In fact, during pre season, many had predicted that the reigning PL champions would struggle to finish top 6 in the 2016/2017 premier league season. What they did not expect was Leicester being in a relegation dog fight. Whenever a team wins a title, its motivation automatically drops the next season. Now while this may not happen to bigger clubs such as Real Madrid and Barcelona, teams such as Leicester are bound to suffer from a lack of motivation after winning big. If you’re interested in watching Real Madrid or Barcelona play, you can get fast speed internet to watch a live stream of a game involving either of these teams.

Leicester fans may not like where their team is currently in the table but the reality is that Leicester is exactly where it should be. Contrary to what most people say, Leicester won the league last through sheer hard work and there was little luck involved in its triumph. Similarly, Leicester is 100% where it should be this season as the team has performed abysmally in most games this season.

In short, Leicester massively overachieved last season to become the English Premier League champions. This season, Leicester has performed just a little below expectations but is exactly where it ‘should be’ in the table.

Despite Gunners boss Arsene Wenger sweating on the fitness of Alexis Sanchez after the former Barcelona man picked up a hamstring injury during the international break, the forward once again demonstrated his immense qualities for Chile, scoring twice in helping them to a 3-1 World Cup qualifying win over Uruguay. Despite Wenger admitting to falling asleep while attempting to watch his star man in action, Sanchez is just one of a number of Arsenal players who could star on the world stage, with Chile among the outsiders in the football odds for the World Cup thanks to the form on Arsenal’s number seventeen.

Chile currently sit in the final automatic qualification position in the South American qualification standings, and having scored five goals for his nation during the campaign, Sanchez has once again demonstrated his worth on the international stage. Despite Lionel Messi’s Argentina applying pressure in fifth position, Chile are still odds on in the football odds with bookmakers Coral to make the finals in Russia. If Sanchez can stay fit from now until 2018, many will fancy Chile’s World Cup chances, with La Roja having lost out on penalties to hosts Brazil last time around.

Elsewhere for Arsenal, the likes of Mesut Ozil, Alex Iwobi and Hector Bellerin could be among those players to star on the biggest stage of them all, with the latter duo having recently burst onto the international team for Nigeria and Spain respectively. Having helped Germany to success in Brazil, Ozil will be hoping that his current form can help Joachim Low’s side to a second successive World Cup success. Coral have Germany as the 5/1 favourites in the football odds, with Argentina and Spain closely following.

Having turned down the opportunity to represent England, Iwobi has gone on to star for Nigeria, earning seven caps since his debut. Nigeria have won both or their final group stage fixtures as they hope to successfully qualify for Russia 2018, and with the Arsenal midfielder having impressed during his early career, the former England youth player could be one of the best African players on show.

Finally, and despite currently being ruled out through injury, defender Hector Bellerin looks set to make the right-back position his own for both club and country. Having fully committed to the Gunners despite heavy interest from Barcelona, Bellerin has three Spanish caps to his name, and with his continued development over the past two seasons, the speedster should be part of the Spain squad in Russia, who are currently 10/1 with Coral to win the whole tournament.

The English Premier League is the top association for men’s football in England. With a lengthy 38 match season, the competition is about a fourth of the way completed. Many fans of the Premier League enjoy watching their favourite team. To make the match a bit more exciting, many fans also place bets on the results.

One of the top football clubs in the English Premier League is Arsenal.  The Arsenal has had a lot of success in the past. The 2003-2004 team has gone down in football history as one of two “invincible” teams by completing the season unbeaten.  In recent years, Arsenal won the Football Association Cup two consecutive times as well as the FA Community Shield.

Currently, the Arsenal is having a winning season, ranked second in the league just barely behind Manchester City. The only thing keeping them from overtaking the top spot is goal difference. Wenger’s team this year is much more resilient and has what is needed to take the championship in May. Some also point to the strong performance by goalkeeper, Petr Cech, as another reason the team is poised for greatness again.

Many fans will no doubt place wagers on the upcoming Arsenal football matches. In many ways, sports betting is not much different than enjoying online gambling. Therefore, fans may want to combine the two activities. For instance, some slot machine games are designed around football based themes including Soccer Safari. This five reel slot machine games comes with a total of 30 paylines. The game is a fusion of the sport along with African animals.

So the next time, Arsenal fans settle into watching a match, they should consider not only placing a sports bet but also check out sites like Casinoonline.co.nz to try football themed slot such as Soccer Safari.

Arsenal have been a joy to watch in recent weeks, with Alexis Sanchez at the heart of everything good about the team’s attacking threat in the final third. Some would argue that the Chilean star is more effective playing out wide, but he has more than proved his quality through the centre with a bundle of goals to go with some excellent performances.

His presence as a false nine gives the team an entirely different dimension to the one provided by Olivier Giroud, with Alexis proving a better fit within Arsenal’s slick passing game as a more skilful and quick-thinking striker to play on the shoulders of defenders and give them a torrid time with his pace. It may prove to be a way of thinking for Arsene Wenger, even if he had little choice to play Alexis through the middle with Olivier Giroud and Lucas Perez out injured. Four goals in five games is proof of his return to form, and although Betway have lowered Alexis’ odds on finishing the season as the Premier League top goalscorer, it is just good to see him back firing on all cylinders.

He would be the first to admit that he struggled to impose himself on games last season, particularly after he set the bar extremely high during his first year at the Emirates. Despite scoring thirteen league goals, Alexis went through the motions as the team never found the consistency and form to challenge for the title, but it appears that a strong Copa America campaign with eventual winners Chile has reignited the fire in his belly. The striker is showing real signs of returning to his best, with Alexis looking extremely dangerous in and around the box; he would have added to his goals tally in the recent game at Burnley if it were not for Tom Heaton or the woodwork. The same could be said of Theo Walcott who looks a completely different player this season, but while it may be a mere purple patch, Alexis has the quality to play like he has been throughout the campaign. His superb chip against Chelsea illustrated a player who has regained his confidence in front of goal, but it is his all-round performances that are not only catching the eye, but also proving extremely prominent in Arsenal’s run of five straight wins and nine unbeaten in all competitions.

Fans will hope that Alexis returns back from international duty injury-free and raring to go, with the 27-year-old set to lead the line against Peru in a South American World Cup Qualifying clash. Wenger could ill-afford a setback for a player that has started the season on fire for Arsenal, particularly as some would argue that Alexis is a confidence player that needs a strong run of form in order to get the best from him. He will certainly fancy his chances of continuing his fine run of form in Arsenal’s upcoming games in the Premier League and Champions League, with a double header against Ludogorets placed between winnable fixtures against Swansea, Middlesbrough and Sunderland. It may be the best time to check today’s betting odds at Betway.com to see if there is value in backing the Gunners to win all five games, and if Alexis continues to perform like he has done in recent weeks, then Arsenal should fancy their chances of prolonging their strong run of form.

Alexis has proven that he is a big-game player, and although he failed to hit the heights last season, fans know that Arsenal have a genuine world class player upfront. What he may lack in height to play as a genuine number nine, he more than makes up for in speed, acceleration and a clinical finishing ability to take chances with an air of ruthlessness. His superb form has kept Giroud out of the picture, and although the Frenchman still has a big part to play this season, he may have to watch on from the sidelines if Alexis continues his superb run of form in an Arsenal shirt.
