Arsenal take the trip up north this Saturday in hopes of lifting themselves out of their league form slump and keep their gap at the top.

In their past 5 meetings Arsenal have very clearly been the dominant side and have won every single on of the pairs meetings. They tend to have an easier time when facing Leeds at home however this has not stopped them from bringing in the needed result.

It also tends to be a high scoring affair if the Gunners are firing, in the last 5 games a total of 19 goals have been scored by both sides, so if the past is anything to go by a bet of over 2.5 or 3.5 goals may be worth a punt, however with recent form we wouldn't prioritise this.

Recent Leeds United and Arsenal Form Analysis:

Last 5 Leeds United Games:

1. Leeds 1-1 Man Utd
2. Newcastle 4-3 Leeds
3. Derby 1-3 Leeds
4. Leeds 1-0 Fulham
5. Everton 1-1 Leeds

In their last 5 Leeds have shown the kind of form that may well see them survive this years campaign back in the top flight. Included in these results are some fantastic performances even if they didn't necessarily bring back the 3 points, mainly the Newcastle game. Away to Newcastle is one of the toughest games in the league for any side and a recently promoted side being minutes away from bringing home a point from there is nothing to ignore.

Defensively the side have not exactly been the most consistent but it could be worse, they have only kept one clean sheet and conceded 7. Up front they have shown a solid capacity to bag goals of their own, in their last 5 they have been able to net 9.

Last 5 Arsenal Games:

1. Portsmouth 1-4 Arsenal
2. Chelsea 2-3 Arsenal
3. Nottingham Forest 0-0 Arsenal
4. Inter 1-3 Arsenal
5. Arsenal 2-3 Man Utd

Arsenal have been in very strange form as of recent, they seem to click back into gear in any competition that isn't the Premier League. But when it comes to league games the attack especially looks devoid of ideas nevertheless they have still been bringing home good results across the board and will need to continue to do so to keep up their status as league leaders.

The defensive record of Chelsea with 15 conceded in a league season may have looked attainable at one point however looking at these goals conceded in their last 5 it's fair to say that hope is gone. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 5 whilst having conceded 7, up front they have been able to bag 12 of their own.
