Follow all the action as Leeds United host Arsenal in the Premier League this afternoon. 

Marcelo Biela’s side enjoyed a promising start on their return to the top flight, however, back-to-back defeats prior to the international break served a reminder of the challenges to come. Ten points from eight games is hardly disastrous, though, and in Patrick Bamford Leeds boast one of England’s most prolific strikers on current form.

For all Mikel Arteta’s sweeping changes at Arsenal, they are still a side afflicted by wild swings of inconsistency. Their fabulous victory over Manchester United sent spirits sky-rocketing but a horrendous thrashing by Aston Villa proved why Arsenal remain very much a work in progress. They begin the game in 14th place and need a strong series of results to bolster their top four credentials. Follow all the action below live:

Leeds 0 - 0 Arsenal

21 mins: Kalvin Phillips slips on the surface and hits Kieran Tierney after he releases the ball. Arsenal have a free kick about 25-yards out from goal.

18 mins: Dallas is booked as he slides in on Ceballos and Arsenal have a free kick some 30 yards from goal. Pepe swings the ball to the far post but Dallas is there to head behind and the corner comes to nothing.

15 mins: Phillips takes a corner for Leeds and it is dealt with at the near post. Arsenal have yet to concede from a corner this season.

12 mins: Lovely from Leeds. Harrison brings the ball to the edge of the left side of the box. Alioski goes forward on the overlap and Harrison feeds him the ball. He pulls it back to Bamford who pokes it at goal but Leno gets low and makes the save.

9 mins: Willian gives the ball to Willock on the edge of the box. He takes too long to make a decision and loses the ball but Ceballos comes to the rescue and wins it back quickly for Arsenal. He nips into the right side of the area and goes for goal but his shot goes wide.

6 mins: Raphinha has the first attempt on goal for Leeds. He’s making his first start for the whites. Klich feeds him the ball on the inside right. He storms at the box and comes more central before letting loose with his left peg and smashing the ball wide of goal.

Leeds 0 - 0 Arsenal

3 mins: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is playing through the middle for Arsenal today which is an exciting prospect. In recent times he’s been on the left and a run of games without scoring may have forced this change.

Leeds 0 - 0 Arsenal

Kick off: Arsenal kick off the match with Willian playing the ball ot Holding. He attempts a long ball out ot the left wing but it is intercepted and Leeds can push forward.

The rain is pretty persistent at Elland Road which could cause a bit of bother as the game goes on. The teams make their way out onto the pitch. Kick off is next…
