Fans can tune in to watch the game for free on BBC1 from 7:30pm.
You can also live stream the match via BBC iPlayer on a range of devices including laptops, smartphones and tablets.
Who will win? RadioTimes.com says…
Much of this game will come down to Arteta’s team selection. A full-strength Arsenal side should be able to overcome a fired-up Leeds XI, but the likelihood is that fringe stars and youngsters will represent the home side.
Marcelo Balsa’s men are top of the Championship for a reason and will prove a stern test for the Gunners if they deploy a youthful team.
Prediction: Arsenal 2-2 Leeds
