KICK OFF: Leeds get the game underway at the Emirates.

The teams are on the pitch at the Emirates, with a special tribute from both following the 22nd anniversary of David Rocastle's passing. RIP Rocky.

What do you make of the team news and our chances today Gooners? Head back here just before kick off for live updates of all the action at the Emirates.

Leeds are in a similar situation regarding their hunger for points, they sit two points above the drop zone as it stands.

With the Manchester City game nearing a close, the Gunners go into the game five points clear of City, a win would extend the lead back up to eight. All points so crucial at this stage of the season.

As expected, Rob Holding starts again at centre-back as William Saliba remains out of action due to a back injury.

A lot of talking points, the most prominent being Saka starting on the bench for Arsenal. It would be assumed that the Englishman has been handed a rest by Arteta, as Gabriel Jesus takes his place in the eleven.

LEEDS UNITED XI: Meslier; Ayling, Firpo, Koch, Struijk, Kristensen; Aaronson, Roca, Summerville, Harrison; Sinisterra

ARSENAL XI: Ramsdale; White, Gabriel, Holding, Zinchenko; Partey, Odegaard, Xhaka; Martinelli, Jesus, Trossard

Team news is imminent; what's your ideal starting eleven today?
