Gabriel Jesus and Takehiro Tomiyasu both start for Arsenal in Sunday's Premier League clash with Leeds United at Elland Road.

Gabriel Jesus and Takehiro Tomiyasu both start for Arsenal in Sunday's Premier League clash with Leeds United at Elland Road.

The former missed out against Bodo/Glimt in midweek after experiencing discomfort after the Liverpool game, and Mikel Arteta classed him as a doubt for the meeting with Jesse Marsch's side.

However, Jesus has been passed fit to lead the line for the Premier League leaders, who name the same XI from their 3-2 success over Jurgen Klopp's side last weekend.

Oleksandr Zinchenko remains out with his calf problem, so Tomiyasu earns another opportunity at left-back, with Kieran Tierney taking his place on the bench.

Aaron Ramsdale replaces Matt Turner in goal, despite the American's impressive showing in Norway, as Ben White, William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes link up at the back.

Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey both come back into the engine room after being benched in midweek, while Martin Odegaard captains the side from his number 10 position.

Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli join the fit-again Jesus in the final third, as Arsenal aim to temporarily go four points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table.

Arsenal starting lineup: Ramsdale; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu; Partey, Xhaka; Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli; Jesus

Substitutes: Turner, Tierney, Nketiah, Holding, Cedric, Vieira, Lokonga, Nelson, Marquinhos

Leeds starting lineup: Meslier; Kristensen, Koch, Cooper, Struijk; Roca, Adams; Aaronson, Rodrigo, Harrison; Sinisterra.

Substitutes: Klaesson, Ayling, Firpo, Bamford, Summerville, Llorente, Gelhardt, Greenwood, Klich
