Match preview

Arsenal's outstanding start to the season has been achieved with an entertaining brand of football and goals should flow when the Londoners face Leeds at Elland Road.

Gunners' manager Mikel Arteta is favouring a fearless approach and has been vindicated because his team are routinely outscoring the opposition.

Going into the weekend only Manchester City had scored more goals than Arsenal, whose attack has been transformed by Gabriel Jesus.

Leeds are the latest team faced with the ominous task of shackling the Brazilian and they may decide that attack is their best form of defence.

Arsenal's high defensive line can leave them exposed and it is probably the main reason why they have kept only one clean sheet in the last six league games.

Arteta's side will be challenged by Leeds, who have Luis Sinisterra back from a one-match suspension.

The Yorkshire side have been on a five-match winless run but they are decent in attack and can play their part in a high-scoring encounter.

Key stat

Both teams have scored in five of Arsenal's last six Premier League matches
