Match details

Premier League 2022-23
Leeds United vs Arsenal

Preview

Arsenal will be looking to strengthen their position at the top of the Premier League table when they travel to Elland Road to take on Leeds United on Sunday. The Gunners are just one point ahead of Manchester City at the moment and thats why it will be important for them to extend that lead further. They have been ruthless in offense so far, scoring 23 goals in just nine games and have also been solid in defense having conceded only 10 times in far. Leeds United, on the other hand, re going through a winless run. They have accumulated only two points in their last five games and will be desperate to taste victory again. But that looks unlikely against an in-form side like Arsenal.
