Arsenal will look to get back on track in the Premier League when they face Leeds at the weekend.
As a result, Arsenal’s lead at the summit has been cut to four points.
Though playing before Manchester City and Aston Villa in this gameweek does at least give Mikel Arteta’s side the chance to open up a seven point gap at the top of the table – albeit potentially for 24 hours or so.

Leeds vs Arsenal team news
The home side are expected to be without Dan James and Jaka Bijol for the visit of the Gunners, while Gabriel Gudmundsson is a doubt after missing Monday’s draw against Everton.
Facundo Buonanotte, formerly on loan at Chelsea, is in line to make his home bow for Leeds after making his debut as a substitute against the Toffees.
David Raya, Gabriel, Bukayo Saka, Martin Zubimendi and Leandro Trossard were all given the night off on Wednesday so should return to the starting XI at Elland Road.

Leeds vs Arsenal prediction
Arsenal away from the Premier League grind seem to be a totally different proposition, but after three games without a win and no goals from open play, the pressure is on to get all three points here.
Leeds are on a good run at home and will fancy their chances of making things difficult for the Gunners, but we expect the visitors to battle their way to a crucial win.
Head to head (h2h) history and results
Gunners have not lost to Leeds since that infamous game at Highbury in May 2003 which handed the Premier League title to Manchester United.
