Leicester vs Arsenal - WSL preview: TV channel, live stream, predicted lineups & prediction
By Ali Rampling
Arsenal will look to maintain their perfect start to the WSL season when they visit basement side Leicester on Sunday afternoon.
The Gunners have won five from five this term, with just goal difference separating Jonas Eidevall's side from current league leaders Manchester United.
Arsenal face a Leicester side who will have Willie Kirk in charge for the first time, after it was announced he would be replacing Lydia Bedford as the Foxes boss on Thursday.
Kirk takes the reins of a team without a point this season, having suffered a last gasp defeat to relegation rivals Reading last time out.

Leicester vs Arsenal score prediction
After injuries had a detrimental impact on their campaign last season, Arsenal have coped well with the absence of their first choice centre-back partnership this term, extending their winning run to five games and conceding only once.
Leicester have hugely struggled so far - although four of their six defeats have been by a single goal. Sunday should be a comfortable win for the Gunners - but Willie Kirk's appointment and the potential for a new manager bounce for the Foxes could yet throw a spanner in the works.
