Story summary

On September 10, Arsenal faced Leeds in a Premier League match after Arsenal's unexpected loss to Brighton, ending their unbeaten start to the season. Despite initial doubts about players Kai Havertz and Ezri Konsa due to injuries sustained during international duty, the game saw Arsenal trailing early when James Justin scored for Leeds. However, Arsenal rallied back with goals from Riccardo Calafiori and a substitute appearance by Bruno Guimaraes, securing a 2-1 comeback victory. The win demonstrated Arsenal's resilience under manager Mikel Arteta, who recently signed a new contract, confirming that their loss to Brighton was likely an anomaly rather than a trend. Ezri Konsa played a dominant defensive role despite being injury-prone and earned high praise from the analysts.

🔮 The next week or so will prove if what happened at the Amex Stadium was a blip or cause for concern, though chances are it was the former as Arsenal have won seven of their eight games across all competitions so far this campaign, six of which have come outside of London.
🔮 A fixture that has dominated England’s top-flight for the best part of a decade is set to attract even more eyeballs with this being Man City's first game since being found guilty of all charges relating to breaches of the Premier League's financial regulations between the 2009-10 and 2017-18 seasons.
🔮 A fixture that has been labelled 'Champions Impact in Jakarta: The Rivalry Returns 2026' will renew a classic rivalry between Arsenal and Man United from the late 90's and early 00's when the two teams regularly did battle for the Premier League trophy.
🔮 This year’s event will once again feature two Money in the Bank ladder matches for the men and the women.
🔮 From Ryan Giggs’ brilliant solo goal to the Gunners clinching the title at Old Trafford to the battle inside that very stadium and the infamous ‘Pizzagate’, these games will live long in the memory of Arsenal and Man United supporters.
🔮 It remains to be seen what impact the three-week break will have on both teams, with Mikel Arteta - in particular - having little time with his players on the training pitch due to so many only returning from international duty this week.

🔮 Will the Man City boss be brave and go with Rayan Cherki in the No10 role or bring in Ayyoub Bouaddi alongside Elliot Anderson and push Enzo Fernandez further up? Phil Foden serves the final game of his three-match suspension after being sent-off in the Manchester derby last month and Nico O’Reilly is a doubt after pulling out of the England squad and not being spotted in the aforementioned training session. Predicted Man City XI: Donnarumma; Nunes, Dias, Guehi, Gvardiol; Fernandez, Anderson; Semenyo, Cherki, Doku; Haaland Read More Doubts: Semenyo, O’Reilly Suspended: Foden Time and date: 4.30pm BST on Sunday, October 11, 2026 How to watch: Sky Sports Venue: Anfield
🔮 “It’s important that they feel I’m listening to them, and we agreed that he would keep going until he felt he couldn’t contribute anymore.
🔮 Since that update, Liverpool have released footage from training, with Jacquet present for the session on Thursday which would suggest he has made a swift recovery.
