Arsenal will hope to keep their 7-match unbeaten streak alive when they face Leeds United on Tuesday at Emirates Stadium in the 4th round of the Carabao Cup. One can only assume Mikel Arteta will field a strong team against this Premier League side, even though they are currently 17th in the league table. The Gunners also have a very important match on Saturday at Leicester City, so some of the front liners should get a rest.
With that said, here’s my predicted line-up on Tuesday…
[4-3-3]
Martinelli, Lacazette, Pepe
Elneny, Maitland-Niles, Odegaard
Kolasinac, Mari, Holding, Cedric
Leno
Predicted final score: ARSENAL 3 – Leeds United 1
COYG!
One of my all-time Arsenal players, Olivier Giroud, returns to Emirates Stadium on Tuesday. This time as a player for the competition, Lille. Giroud scored 105 goals in 253 appearances for the Gunners.
Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard on Man City’s punishment. “In terms of how I feel, I potentially could be affected if you like, I wouldn’t want individual players to give stuff back, that wouldn’t be right. But the club, they have to be stripped.”
Yes. Especially good to see kolasinac in your side. Leeds have been the dirtiest team since the days of billy bremner.
VAR will be used a couple of times in this match.
