The Emirates Stadium plays host to its first Premier League fixture of the season as Arsenal takes on recently promoted Leeds. 

Both teams kicked-off the new season with hard-fought 1:0 wins last weekend, and will be keen to maintain their winning form in front of an expectant home crowd.

The Gunners have dominated this fixture in the 21st century, and with new signing Viktor Gyokeres set for a home debut, the hosts will be expected to prevail against the visiting Lilywhites.

Arsenal team overview

Arsenal return to London after a somewhat fortuitous 1:0 win at Manchester United last weekend. Riccardo Callafiori's first-half goal secured a narrow win for the Gunners.

Mikel Arteta's side have now won each of their last four league fixtures since the end of last season.

Arsenal claimed 11 wins from their last 19 Premier League home games, but Mikel Arteta will want a stronger return this season if his side are to go one better than last year’s runners-up finish.

Head coach Arteta has been dealt a blow with the loss of Kai Havertz to a knee injury. However a deal for Crystal Palace playmaker Eberechi Eze is imminent, and the expected signing could feature on Sunday.

Leeds United

Leeds team overview

Leeds make the trip to London in high spirits after a hard-fought 1:0 win against Everton on Monday evening. Lukas Nmecha's controversial penalty late in the second period secured the points for the Lilywhites on their return to the Premier League. 

Daniel Farke's side struggled on their travels in their previous PL campaign in 2022/23. Leeds lost 14 of 19 road games that season. 

The Lilywhites have struggled in previous visits to this venue, including a 4:1 loss on their last trip to the Emirates in 2023. 

Head coach Farke is unlikely to make too many changes from the side that edged past Everton. Jayden Bogle (hip), Sebastiaan Bornauw (calf), and Ethan Ampadu (ankle) face late fitness tests to determine their availability this weekend.
