Comments and predictions for Arsenal vs Leeds: Gunners dominate
The match between Arsenal vs Leeds in the Premier League takes place at 11:30 p.m. on August 23. Let's analyze the performance, make football comments and predict the score.

Latest Arsenal vs Leeds squad information
Just hours after it emerged that Kai Havertz had suffered a new knee injury – the extent of which is unclear – Arsenal have disappointed Tottenham by successfully “stealing” target Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace.
Although an agreement has been reached, it is almost certainly too early for Eze to make his debut this weekend, so Gabriel Martinelli's left-back position is still guaranteed.
Ben White and Christian Norgaard both require late fitness tests with minor injuries – Norgaard also missed the win over Man United – while Gabriel Jesus (cruciate ligament) is months away from a full recovery.
Leeds manager Daniel Farke was relieved to see Ethan Ampadu only suffer a bruised ankle and is likely to be back in midfield. Leeds can have a nearly full squad, with Jaka Bijol returning from suspension and Sebastiaan Bornauw also on the bench against Everton.
Former Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin will not feature against his old club, and even if he is fit, Nmecha and Joel Piroe will still be the first-choice strikers.

Latest football commentary Arsenal vs Leeds
Arsenal's open play attacks were ineffective, but they found a "salvation" from set pieces - a familiar scenario in the 2024-25 season and once again at Old Trafford in the opening round of the Premier League.

Riccardo Calafiori took advantage of a mistake by second-choice goalkeeper Altay Bayindir for Man United to score the decisive goal. However, Arsenal fans also understood that their team was quite lucky to leave the field with 3 points, in the context that Man United had more strength from Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha but still wasted many opportunities.
Thanks to David Raya’s usual brilliance and poor finishing from his opponents, Arsenal beat Man United 1-0 away for the sixth time in the Premier League era. Mikel Arteta’s side also extended their unbeaten run against the “Big Six” to 22 matches.
Continuing their form towards the end of last season, the Premier League runners-up are on a run of three consecutive wins, all by the slimmest of margins. Their last home win by two or more goals came more than six months ago, when Arsenal beat Man City 5-1.
Still, one more win – albeit a narrow one – would see Arsenal make history, as they are now unbeaten in 42 consecutive home games against newly promoted sides. If they avoid defeat at Leeds, that would equal Chelsea’s record from 2001 to 2015.
Calafiori's goal was also one of the more controversial refereeing decisions in the opening round, with many arguing that Altay Bayindir had been fouled by William Saliba. Controversy also erupted in Leeds' game against Everton on the Premier League's return to Elland Road.
Lukas Nmecha coolly scored from the penalty spot after James Tarkowski was penalised for handling the ball. Although the Everton defender's arm was in a natural position, the way he leaned towards the ball led to the referee's decision to award the penalty.
Regardless, the statistics show that Leeds deserved to win against a passive Everton. This was also Leeds' first Premier League win in more than two years.
The big surprise in north London this weekend will be Leeds winning both of their opening Premier League games for the first time since 2002. However, the capital has not been a good place for them: Leeds have lost their last seven games in London.
Meanwhile, Arsenal have won six consecutive matches against Leeds in all competitions and are unbeaten in their last 14 meetings. The last time Leeds beat Arsenal was at Highbury in 2003.
