Arsenal host Leeds United at the Emirates on Saturday, October 10, 2026, looking to recover from a 3-0 defeat to Brighton that ended their perfect start to the Premier League season.
Mikel Arteta's side won their first four games before the international break but were left stunned by the loss at Brighton. The Gunners are without summer signing Christos Tzolis, who injured himself playing for Greece, while Kai Havertz and Ezri Konsa are also doubts.
Leeds unbeaten start
Leeds, who are without Joe Rodon and Dan James, are aiming to extend their unbeaten start to the campaign, having won two and drawn three of their first five games. Daniel Farke was optimistic in his pre-match press conference that Jean-Matteo Bahoya and Harry Wilson could return to the matchday squad.
Confirmed lineups and team news
Arsenal's confirmed starting XI is: Raya, White, Gabriel, Konsa, Calafiori, Lewis-Skelly, Rice, Odegaard, Saka, Madueke, Havertz. Subs: Arrizabalaga, Timber, Hincapie, Zubimendi, Merino, Guimaraes, Eze, Dowman, Gyokeres.
Arteta confirmed on Friday that Tzolis will be out 'for a few weeks' after his injury over the international break. Havertz and Konsa also picked up knocks, but Arteta did not confirm whether either will be fit for today. Declan Rice did not go away with England, but is expected to be fit to start.
How to watch and kick-off time
The match kicks off at 12.30pm UK time from the Emirates. Viewers in the United Kingdom can watch the game on TV via TNT Sports.
