Mikel Merino came off the bench as an emergency centre forward, and scored both goals to earn a valuable win in the Midlands.
With both Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz added to our injury list since our last game, Mikel Arteta's striking options were limited when he turned to his bench with the game goalless with 20 minutes remaining.
Merino was sent on in an unfamiliar striker's role, and he superbly headed in Ethan Nwaneri's cross to break the deadlock with ten minutes remaining.
He then scored at the far post from Leandro Trossard's low centre to wrap up victory on what had looked to be turning into a frustrating afternoon in Leicester.
