A vintage Premier League fixture will be staged this weekend at Emirates Stadium, with Leeds United travelling to the capital to face Arsenal.
A duel that evokes memories of the 1990s and early noughties, the gulf between Arsenal and Leeds is now unrecognisable from those hard-fought early Premier League battles, with the Gunners expected to stroll to victory against their Yorkshire visitors on Saturday.
Leeds will be eager to upset the odds following their confidence-boosting victory over Everton in their opener, but the newly-promoted side will be fearing the worst when venturing to the Emirates—especially given they haven’t beaten Arsenal in any competition since 2003.
The Gunners were not at their sharpest against Manchester United in their first fixture of the new term but still came away from Old Trafford with three points tucked under their belt. One goal was enough to topple their historic rivals, but Mikel Arteta will demand more in the final third against Leeds this weekend.
Here’s how to tune into Saturday’s clash.
