Arteta insists Leeds United deserved their fine start to the season

Leeds United travel to the Emirates today to face Arsenal , sitting fifth in the league table after an unbeaten start to the season. The Whites have made an encouraging impression so far and will be eager to maintain their momentum against one of their toughest opponents in the opening weeks of the campaign.

Their performances have shown that they should not be underestimated, and Arsenal know they will need to work hard to secure all three points. Leeds enjoyed a positive campaign last season and have carried that form into the new season, giving them confidence ahead of the trip to north London.

However, Arsenal represent a significant test for the visitors, who will be aware that preserving their unbeaten record will not be easy.
