ARS Vs LU Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Arsenal face an extremely tricky opposition today as they look to continue their resurgence.
For Arsenal, Arteta taking over the club has come across as a massive breath of new and fresh air. Although it’s still early days into the new manager’s reign, there have been evident signs of improvement at the club to lift the rapturous supporters of the club once again.
It’s all down to the comprehensive manner in which they decimated Manchester United the last time around in the Premier League. The 2-0 win won us over not only owing to the result but rather the overwhelming manner in which the win came about with the side showing fight and character, something which was long yearned at the club this season.
And as today’s hosts look to keep reviving what has been a sordid season till now, they come up against an extremely dicey opponent today. When the side steps out to the middle for its third round FA Cup tie, they are taking on Championship leaders Leeds United, a side which will be a massive test of Arsenal’s reslliance and valour.
Probable Winner
Leeds United might be sitting atop of the Championship points tally but the side have hit a block at the moment. With just the one win in their last five encounters, they have unravelled at the wrong time, something Arsenal will be looking to capitalise on.
This will be a closely contested affair, a ripper of a tie which will be tantalising poised across the 90 minutes. Arsenal’s strength in their attacking travails and squad should see them hold the edge today and guide the side through to the fourth round.

ARS Vs LU Dream11 Goal-Keeper
Arsenal’s goal-keeper Emiliano Martinez is set to feature for the side today and we’ll be going with his selection for this encounter. He’s made the most of the chances accorded to him, pulling off some stellar and stunning displays with the gloves this season to see us entrust the shot stopper for the forthcoming contest.
ARS Vs LU Dream11 Defenders
Where Arsenal have faced immense backlash for their lacklustre defensive with the side letting in a horrendous 30 goals in 21 encounters, Leeds United haven’t fared off any better recently. Their dull displays have been largely due to part of their defence collapsing, something which emotes towards this clash being one where both the sides will concede.
It saw us make our picks solely based on the attacking thrust these defenders will be providing to their side’s attacking soirees. The rhetoric lead us towards the indomitable partnership of Ainsley Maitland Niles and Rob Holding from Arsenal while the lone pick from Leeds United will be of Robbie Gotts.
ARS Vs LU Dream11 Midfielders
We begin this component of our side with Bukayo Saka from Arsenal. He’s taken kindly to the new LB role he’s been handed over by the club, adjusting to his new found position without any qualms to emerge as a solid contender for the encounter owing to his dual nature as a player today.
Rees Nelson will be someone who’ll benefit from Arsenal toying around with their side to see us bring him in as well from the unit while the visiting side find represent in the identity of an entire trio. The diminutive and myriad partnership of Jack Harrison and Mateusz Klich are capable of sending any defence packing with ease, two names who have been responsible for the side making such ascendancy in the league.
Wingback Kelvin Phillips has an affinity to keep incessantly torching up the park to see him wrap up this ambit of our side.
ARS Vs LU Dream11 Strikers
Both the side’s leading goal scorer are being picked up by us in this ambit of our team. We begin with Patrick Bamford from Leeds United, someone who has come up with the 10 goals and 2 assists this term to emerge as the frontline striker for the side.
Elsewhere, although Arsenal will be playing around with their team, we find it unlikely that they’ll be doing away with 13 goal man Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang for this one. In case he doesn’t play, Alexandre Lacazette will be taking up his place.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Aubameyang or Lacazette will be our side’s captain with Bamford our vice-captain.
