Arsenal vs PSV UEFA Europa League.
.
For the first time this season, Arsenal were fortunate to come away from a match with all three points to their name, as Leeds United huffed and puffed but ultimately fell victim to Bukayo Saka's goal in a tensely-fought contest at Elland Road.

Prior to finishing eighth in the Kopa Trophy, Saka lashed home from a tight angle before Patrick Bamford fluffed his lines from 12 yards, but the England striker would seemingly be handed a chance to rectify his earlier mistake in the dying embers after Gabriel Magalhaes appeared to kick out at him.
However, VAR - which took nearly 40 minutes to get up and running again after a power cut - spotted an earlier foul on Gabriel from Bamford, seeing the Arsenal man stay on the pitch and the penalty award revoked, and Mikel Arteta's side now hold a four-point lead over Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur at the summit.
The Premier League table is not the only one that the exciting Gunners are top of right now, as a perfect tally of nine points from three Europa League games puts them two clear of PSV Eindhoven in Group A and five above third-placed Bodo/Glimt, whom they also beat via a 1-0 scoreline on artificial Norwegian turf last week.
Due to their head-to-head results against Bodo/Glimt, Arsenal will guarantee a place in the knockout round play-offs at the very least with a draw on Thursday, and a win would mean that they would require just two points from their final two games to finish top and advance to the last-16.
Arteta has now witnessed his crop win seven games on the bounce in all competitions - as well as each of their last nine at home with two goals on each occasion - but they will face the biggest test to their continental supremacy this week.
