Arsenal form and stats

Arsenal have been very solid at home in the Premier League so far, with 35 points collected from 14 matches (11-2-1). This has contributed greatly to their 1st position in the table. The team is able to perform also as the away side, as they are nurturing a very healthy winning streak of six straight victories regardless of arena.

The Arsenal club members enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Crystal Palace and win 4-1. The forward Saka was named "man of the match" for Arsenal with a rating of 8.64/10. Saka scored two goals, served one assist and hit three key passes.

Previously, the Europa League-game at home against Sporting CP (after extra-time, 3-5 on penalties) that ended 1-1. Disappointing as the club were big pre-match favourites. Arsenal are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found 8 matches and the win/draw/lost stats: Won 6, drew 2 and lost 0.

Arsenal are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (38 goals in 14 games). On the other hand, Arsenal have conceded 17 goals.

Leeds United form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Leeds United so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-9 (win-draw-lose).

Leeds play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-2 victory visiting Wolverhampton Wanderers (placed 13th). As you can tell from the result, the match against Wolverhampton Wanderers was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today? Goalkeeper Meslier was absolutely vital in the Leeds United victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers, making six saves. Harrison got a match rating of 7.41 in that game, top player of the team. Harrison scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.

A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting Brighton & Hove Albion.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Nottingham Forest in just three days.

Leeds United have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 14 league away games 17 goals have been scored. Leeds struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 26 goals conceded from these games. Leeds United has visited these top teams four times, and 3 of 4 has ended with 2 goals or more!
