Leeds vs Arsenal Preview & Tips


Leeds are coming off a tough week after shipping 10 goals in successive defeats. Short on numbers due to injuries and suspension, I'm backing to hosts to lose again.

Arsenal have recorded two impressive home wins in the last week and they can make it a hat-trick.

  • Leeds have lost their last 2 matches (Premier League).
  • Leeds have conceded 12 goals in their last 3 matches (Premier League).
  • Arsenal have won 5 of their last 6 matches against Leeds (all competitions).
  • Arsenal have won their last 2 matches (Premier League).

Head to Head


Arsenal have a 49-41 advantage against Leeds in 133 meetings with 33 draws.

The Gunners have won five of the last six clashes, including a 2-0 victory at home in this season's EFL Cup in October.

Leeds Form


Leeds have recorded just one win in their last seven matches and have been leaking goals this month.

Marcelo Bielsa's side drew 2-2 at home to Brentford before losing twice this week, 3-2 at Chelsea on Saturday and then 7-0 at Manchester City on Tuesday.

Leeds News


Leeds are beset by injuries with defenders Pascal Struijk, Robin Koch and Liam Cooper all out.

Midfielder Kalvin Phillips is sidelined along with forwards Rodrigo and Patrick Bamford.

Stand-in full-back Jamie Shackleton and winger Dan James are doubtful after coming off against Man City, while defender Junior Firpo is now suspended.

Arsenal have bounced back from defeats away to Manchester United and Everton by recording back-to-back wins at home in the last week.

A 3-0 victory over Southampton last Saturday was followed by an impressive 2-0 win over West Ham on Wednesday.

Former captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will once again be left out by Mikel Arteta.

Arsenal will also be without goalkeeper Bernd Leno and defender Sead Kolasinac through injury.
