Arsenal vs Leeds United Preview

The Gunners are going through a good spell of form under Mikel Arteta after their poor start to his season. They defeated their North London rivals Tottenham and are unbeaten since then having claimed two draws and a 3-1 win over Aston Villa in the next three matches in the Premier League. in the EFL Cup, they have already scored 9 goals in the second and third rounds of the competition and will look for a place in the quarter-finals at the full-time whistle on Wednesday.

Leeds United have not started the season particularly well and seem t have lost their mojo from last season. Bielsa’s side came back strongly against Wolves in their last Premier League to get an equalizer in the 93rd minute. They are at the 17th spot in the league but they will look to extend their stay in the domestic cup competition after their third-round victory over Fulham.
