Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Arsenal could line up for Sunday's Premier League clash with Leeds United.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta may avoid taking any risks over Ben White's fitness for Sunday's Premier League clash with Leeds United.

The centre-back was absent from last weekend's win at West Ham United due to a tight hamstring and may be spared with the midweek North London derby with Tottenham Hotspur in mind.

Kieran Tierney and Thomas Partey remain out for the long term for the Gunners, but Takehiro Tomiyasu should be fine to take his place at the back after coming off with cramp at the London Stadium.

Tomiyasu's withdrawal was understandable given that he was making his first Premier League start for four months, and the ever-volatile Nuno Tavares should continue out on the left.

In White's absence, Rob Holding capped off a man-of-the-match showing against West Ham with his first Premier League goal and should line up alongside match-winner Gabriel Magalhaes once again.

Granit Xhaka and Mohamed Elneny will expect to form their newly-effective midfield pairing, as creator-in-chief Martin Odegaard continues in the number 10 role.

Bukayo Saka will be one of the first names on the team sheet as per, and the intensity of a Leeds United side may suit Gabriel Martinelli more than Emile Smith Rowe.

Eddie Nketiah once again looked a threat for the Gunners despite failing to score against West Ham, and the Englishman is set to continue ahead of Alexandre Lacazette.

Arsenal possible starting lineup: Ramsdale; Tomiyasu, Holding, Gabriel, Tavares; Xhaka, Elneny; Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli; Nketiah
