In the warm up Bukayo Saka went down with an injury for Arsenal ahead of their game at Leeds on Saturday and he had to be omitted.
This could be a big problem for Mikel Arteta given Saka’s talismanic status for the Gunners.
Saka was replaced in the lineup by Noni Madueke who started on the right wing for Arsenal instead, with Cristian Norgaard added to the bench.
Losing Bukayo Saka for any stretch of time would be a big blow for Arsenal’s title hopes, and we will wait to hear the latest from Arteta after the game.
