Leeds are aiming to continue their recent momentum when they travel to Arsenal in the Premier League this afternoon.

Marcelo Bielsa’s side come into the fixture in fine form, with three wins in their last four games seeing the club rise into the top half of the table. Leeds were utterly dominant against an admittedly listless Crystal Palace side last time out and cruised to a 2-0 win at Elland Road.

Meanwhile, the Gunners are hoping to recover from another slump, with back-to-back defeats against Wolves and Aston Villa leaving them languishing in the bottom half of the table. Mikel Arteta will also have to make do without two of his key players in Kieran Tierney and Thomas Partey, with the latter “devastated” after suffering a hamstring injury.

Arsenal will hope to derive some extra motivation from the two side’s last meeting, though, when Nicolas Pepe’s sending off looked to have handed Leeds victory. However, despite being on the back foot, Arsenal held on valiantly to leave Elland Road with a point.
