What TV channel is Leeds United v Arsenal on? Kick-off time, team news and predictions

Arsenal will be looking for a return to winning form on Sunday as they travel to face Leeds United.

The Gunners were humbled at home by Aston Villa in their last Premier League outing before the international break, adding to their struggles this season.

Mikel Arteta's side have lost four of their opening eight matches with their main concern being in front of goal.

Their last league goal came from the penalty spot against Manchester United at the beginning of the month.

Leeds will also be on the hunt for all three points with Marcelo Bielsa's men experiencing a dip in form in recent weeks.

Is Leeds United v Arsenal on TV?

Sunday's game will be shown live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League.

Existing customers can also stream the match using Sky Go or the Sky Sports app on a variety of devices.

Coverage will begin at 4:00pm on Sunday before kick-off half an hour later at 4:30pm.

What is the latest team news?

Thomas Partey will miss out with a thigh injury in a big blow to Arsenal's midfield.

The 27-year-old was hoping to be fit but was ruled out on Friday.

Mohamed Elneny won't feature as he continues his recovery from coronavirus while Pablo Mari and Gabriel Martinelli also remain sidelined.

Meanwhile, long-term absentee Calum Chambers could return to the matchday squad but lacks sharpness and match fitness.

Leeds may benefit from the potential return of Kalvin Phillips, who had been struggling with a shoulder issue.

Summer signing Rodrigo could also make the squad after completing a two-week period of isolation, whereas defender Jamie Shackleton is a doubt.

Adam Forshaw, Gaetano Berardi and Diego Llorente will all miss out.

Which team is predicted to win?

Pundits have declared contrasting opinions regarding the outcome of Sunday's game.

Mark Lawrenson has backed Leeds to claim a tight 2-1 victory over the Gunners in his weekly BBC Sport predictions.

"There's surely got to be a reaction from Arsenal, after such a poor performance in their defeat by Aston Villa," he opined. "But I am going to go with Leeds here."

Former England striker Michael Owen believes the result will go the other way, telling BetVictor: "If he [Arteta] is prepared to concede a bit of ground and soak up some Leeds pressure, I fancy the Gunners to take full advantage on the break."
