Arsenal have a point to prove when they return from the international break to face Leeds United in the Premier League on Saturday at The Emirates Stadium in north London.
The Gunners were humiliated in their final outing before club soccer’s hiatus as they suffered a shock 3–0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion. The bruising loss brought their perfect start to the season to a conclusion and allowed Manchester City to leapfrog them in the standings.
Mikel Arteta, who has recently penned a contract extension with Arsenal, will demand significant improvements at the Emirates Stadium in the first of six matches before the end of October. While there might be one eye on the Champions League tie with Lille next Tuesday, any complacency this weekend will be punished by an in-form Leeds side.
The Yorkshire outfit are unbeaten during their opening five Premier League matches and begin the upcoming round of fixtures in fifth place. Clearly inspired by Arsenal, defense has been key to the club’s swift start, with no team having conceded fewer than the three goals they have allowed thus far.
