Leicester City are back in Premier League action on Saturday afternoon, taking on Arsenal.
The Foxes had a week off from their relegation battle recently but did not fare much better outside of the Premier League.
Leicester City lost 2-1 to Manchester United, being sent crashing out of the FA Cup thanks to an offside goal from former player, Harry Maguire.
Another tough test awaits at the King Power Stadium on February 15th when title-chasing Arsenal come to town.
The Gunners are currently second in the Premier League and six points off top spot having played a game more than Liverpool.
Leicester, on the other hand, are down in 18th place and two points from safety – a gap that is likely to extend this weekend.

Ahead of the tie, we have taken a look back at the career of one Arsenal legend Leicester told to leave for free.
Leicester City told Martin Keown to leave for free
Martin Keown had an illustrious playing career that began with Arsenal in 1984 and led to much success.
The centre-back won a staggering 10 trophies during his time with the Gunners, which included playing a part in the famous 2003/04 Invincibles season.
Keown captured three Premier League titles, three FA Cups, three Community Shields, and one European Cup Winners’ Cup while in North London.
He then left Arsenal in July 2004, joining Leicester, who were playing in the Championship at the time, on a free transfer.
However, Keown only spent half a season in the Midlands, being allowed to join Reading for free in January 2005.
At the time, as per BBC Sport, a club spokesman revealed the defender was allowed to leave for free as the ex-Arsenal star could not be guaranteed regular minutes.
They said: “Martin has been told he is free to leave the club on a free transfer.
“With the return of Matt Elliott and the emergence of Richard Stearman, the club are not in a position to guarantee Martin regular first-team football.
“Therefore it is felt in the best interests of both parties that Martin is free to leave the club.”

Key players to play for Leicester City and Arsenal
While Keown did not have a great stint in the Midlands, Alan Smith excelled at Leicester and Arsenal.
He scored 65 times for the Foxes before being snapped up by the Gunners and netting an impressive 113 times for them in all competitions.
Elsewhere, Paul Dickov lined out for both teams, though featured a lot more for Leicester.
Meanwhile, one of Ruud van Nistelrooy’s current stars – Stephy Mavididi, spent time at the Emirates as a youngster before leaving for Juventus in 2018.
