How to watch today's Arsenal vs Leeds United Premier League game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

0
Arsenal's Premier League title charge continues this weekend with what, on paper, looks like a favourable clash against newly promoted Leeds United at the Emirates.

Mikel Arteta's men opened their campaign with a gritty 1-0 win away at Manchester United, where Riccardo Calafiori’s towering header proved the difference in a match otherwise short on sparkle. Now, the Gunners will be looking to build momentum and make it two from two.

Leeds, back in the top flight after a year away, began their return with a hard-fought 1-0 success over Everton at Elland Road. The only goal came from the spot, with new signing Lucas Nmecha, a product of Manchester City's academy, coolly dispatching his penalty to get his side off the mark.

Daniel Farke has overseen a busy summer of recruitment as Leeds aim to strengthen and avoid the struggles that often haunt promoted teams. Saturday’s trip to North London will provide an early barometer of their ability to cope with the rigours of top-tier football.

Team news & squads

Arsenal team news

For Arsenal, the build-up was dominated by transfer news. Mere hours after it was revealed that Kai Havertz had picked up a knee injury—the severity still uncertain—the Gunners landed a statement signing by snatching Eberechi Eze from under Tottenham's nose.

While the deal is wrapped up, the England international is unlikely to feature this weekend, meaning Gabriel Martinelli should keep his place on the left flank.

Elsewhere, Ben White and Christian Norgaard face late fitness checks after recent knocks; the latter also missed the United game, while Gabriel Jesus continues his rehabilitation from ACL surgery and won't be back for several months.

Leeds team news

Leeds have fitness worries of their own. Ethan Ampadu was forced off against Everton, and scans have confirmed an MCL issue that will rule him out until after the international break. Ilia Gruev is expected to anchor the midfield in his absence, though Jaka Bijol is available again following suspension, and Sebastiaan Bornauw made the bench last time out after recovering from a calf problem.

There was no sentimental reunion for Dominic Calvert-Lewin against his old club earlier this week, and the forward may now face added competition with Noah Okafor pushing for his debut after arriving from AC Milan.
