Arsenal have Gabriel Jesus back for today’s Premier League encounter with Leeds at Elland Road.
The Brazilian needed lengthy treatment on the pitch in the win over Liverpool after being caught by an elbow from Kostas Tsimikas, and did not train earlier in the week as a precaution before staying at home as the Gunners beat Bodo/Glimt in Norway.
However, Jesus is available after the midweek rest and leads the line as Arsenal look to extend their winning run to seven matches in all competitions.
