Leeds United vs Arsenal Preview and Livestream EFL Cup

Leeds United once used to be a regular fixture in the English top flight. Bielsa has restored some of that status in recent years and they are looking like a tricky team to face for any side, be it Arsenal or Accrington. They have certainly made a reputation for themselves as one of the most open, attacking teams in the league.

That has cost them to some extent this season, with just 1 win in 9 league games, but it doesn’t mean that they can’t beat a defensively shaky team such as Arsenal on their day. They have so far beaten Crewe Alexandra and Fulham to reach here, and while the Gunners will be a step up in opposition, it’s a challenge they will not shy away from.
