Arsenal take on Leeds United, looking to stretch their lead at the top of the Premier League table to seven points before title rivals Manchester City and Aston Villa play later this weekend. Mikel Arteta will be hoping to pile the pressure on the pair with a big win.
The Gunners have not visited Elland Road since 2022, when they narrowly won with just a single goal scored by Bukayo Saka. The winger has not enjoyed a high-scoring season so far, and converting a chance this afternoon would be a dream for the England international.
William Saliba and Jurrien Timber, who missed the midweek game with Kairat Almaty, are both expected to return for the trip. The Gunners decided not to fly due to weather conditions and instead travelled up by other means on Friday, but it is not thought to have had much of an impact on preparations.
