-----------------------------
Arsenal head to Elland Road to face Leeds United as they look to end a poor run away from home in the Premier League. The Gunners have gone three league matches without a win, raising pressure ahead of this trip. Leeds, meanwhile, are gaining momentum and boosting their survival hopes with improving performances.

Team Analysis:
Arsenal’s title push has shown signs of strain after recent league setbacks, including a damaging home defeat, despite a midweek Champions League win restoring some confidence. Their away form has dipped, with only two wins in the last six league trips, allowing rivals to close the gap at the top. Leeds, meanwhile, are strong at Elland Road and steadily building survival momentum, making this a tricky test for the Gunners.

Player Situation:
Arsenal are set to regain key players as William Saliba and Jurrien Timber are expected to be fit, while Declan Rice and Mikel Merino return from suspension. Mikel Arteta is likely to restore his strongest lineup, with Kai Havertz pushing for a rare league start after an impressive midweek display. Leeds could welcome back Gabriel Gudmundsson and Daniel James, but defensive injuries and an out-of-form Dominic Calvert-Lewin remain concerns.

Result Prediction:
Arsenal’s attacking issues remain unresolved, and their defense no longer looks as solid as it once did. Those weaknesses could be exposed at Elland Road, where Leeds have already troubled several top sides this season. Given recent warning signs, the Gunners may struggle to get the result they want again.

Predicted Result: Leeds United 1-1 Arsenal.
