Confirmed Arsenal team to face Leeds United – Madueke starts | OneFootball

Arsenal welcome promoted Leeds United to the Emirates this evening with a good chance of going joint top, and this is the side selected by Mikel Arteta.

Arsenal team v Leeds

Leeds won their opening game of the season at Elland Road over Everton thanks to a late controversial penalty and will no doubt come into this game with a lot of confidence, but Arsenal are not Everton, and they will find the Gunners a totally different proposition.

Arsenal beat Manchester United in their opening Premier League fixture in what could only be described as a below-par performance; a massive improvement is expected today against Daniel Farke’s men.

The pressure is certainly on Mikel Arteta, considering the transfer spending done this summer and the quality of players brought in, and nothing less than a win will do today. Leeds will most likely employ the low block, no matter what Farke says, and the lads will have to find a way to break United down.

All eyes will be on Viktor Gyokeres with expectations high that he will find the back of the net against a promoted side; however, this is Premier League football, and no game is easy.

All things considered, Arsenal should be winning this game today, and by at least a couple of goals; they cannot put in another substandard display.

Let us know in the comments below what you think about the side Arteta has selected and what your predicted score is.
