Arsenal are looking to respond after Manchester City defeated Liverpool in Saturday’s early kick off to pile the pressure on the Premier League leaders.

Mikel Arteta’s men have had their lead cut to five points but can restore it back to eight if they defeat Javi Gracia’s Leeds United at the Emirates stadium this afternoon. Illness has kept Arsenal’s star man, Bukayo Saka, on the bench but he could play a part later in the game if the Gunners require his services but with big matches on the horizon, Saka may sit this one out.

Leeds meanwhile are hoping to propel themselves further up the table. In a close and tense relegation battle - featuring all the teams from 20th up to 12th - any points that Leeds can take away from London today will be a big boost to their chances of survival.

Saka has been an imperative part of Arsenal's attack across the season but has been quiet since being introduced. Most of the attacks have come down the left through Martinelli.

Leeds are having more of the ball now and are looking to score again. They win a corner on the right after White turned the ball behind, but Roca's corner is cleared away by the defender.

Arsenal’s top scorer in the Premier League this season is Martinelli with 13 goals; the last player to score more while aged 21 or under in a single campaign in the division was Dele Alli in 2016-17 (18), while the last non-English player to do so was Saido Berahino in 2014-15 (14). He has had four shots with two on target, but has not scored against Leeds today.

Harrison flashes a cross into the box looking for Rodrigo, but the striker cannot get there. Zinchenko could clear it away but lets it go out for a throw-in.
