Arsenal welcome Leeds United to the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, October 10, 2026, looking to bounce back from their disappointing 3-0 defeat against Brighton before the international break.
The loss ended Arsenal’s perfect start across all competitions, with Mikel Arteta criticising his players’ lack of respect during the defeat. However, the Gunners have been strong at home, winning their last five Premier League matches at the Emirates. Arteta’s new long-term contract also provides a boost ahead of the encounter.
Leeds arrive in fifth place with nine points from five matches and just three goals conceded. Daniel Farke’s side have impressed with their defensive organisation, although their recent record against Arsenal is concerning, having lost their last eight meetings.
Team News
Arsenal are assessing Declan Rice, Ezri Konsa, Kai Havertz, Max Dowman and Christos Tzolis after their international withdrawals. Ben White and Cristhian Mosquera are also doubts, while William Saliba remains sidelined.
Leeds could welcome Jean-Matteo Bahoya and Harry Wilson back from injury. However, Daniel James, Mateo Joseph and Joe Rodon are expected to miss the match.
Possible Lineups
Arsenal: Raya; Timber, Konsa, Gabriel, Calafiori; Rice, Lewis-Skelly; Saka, Odegaard, Eze; Gyokeres.
Leeds United: Trafford; Justin, Muharemovic, Elvedi; Bogle, Tanaka, Ampadu, Stach, Gudmundsson; Okafor, Calvert-Lewin.
Prediction
Arsenal 2-1 Leeds United.
Despite their injury concerns, Arsenal’s home advantage and attacking quality could prove decisive against a well-organised Leeds side.
