Gameweek 6 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) kicks off with Arsenal v Leeds United this Saturday lunchtime.

The Premier League’s first match in 20 days gets underway at 12.30pm BST.

TEAM NEWS

Kai Havertz and Ezri Konsa have recovered from the injuries they picked up on international duty to start for the hosts.

Meanwhile, it’s Noni Madueke, and not Eberechi Eze, who gets the nod to come in for the absent Christos Tzolis.

There are two other changes from Gameweek 5, with Ben White and Myles Lewis-Skelly ousting the benched Jurrien Timber and Bruno Guimaraes.

There’s no Cristhian Mosquera in the squad, despite his return to training over the break.

Leeds are unchanged from their goalless draw with Crystal Palace.

LINE-UPS

Arsenal XI: Raya, White, Konsa, Gabriel, Calafiori, Rice, Lewis-Skelly, Odegaard, Saka, Madueke, Havertz.

Substitutes: Arrizabalaga, Zubimendi, Timber, Eze, Merino, Gyokeres, Hincapie, Guimaraes, Dowman.

Leeds United XI: Trafford, Bogle, Justin, Elvedi, Muharemovic, Gudmundsson, Tanaka, Stach, Ampadu, Okafor, Calver-Lewin.

Substitutes: Zetterer, Bard, Gruev, Bahoya, Bijol, Nmecha, Wilson, Longstaff, Aaronson.

          Havertz had a chance with a header but it was a soft glance down to Trafford, so it's more like Arsenal 1- 4 Leeds. But I'm not counting that as a chance.

      Deservedly on 3 bonus at HT. He's been incredible once again.

      Spain's depth at GK is ridiculous.

          I think at face value, he has everything. I think he's one of those players who is amazing in training but is utterly useless in real and competitive games. He's not a premier league player. His decision making is utterly dreadful.

    Low key half from Arsenal, two headers from Havertz about the sum of it and not looking likely so far.

    Leeds with the better of the chances, the crowd seems half asleep too, or maybe that was me!

    something seems off defensively for arsenal

    calafiori playing not as a marauding LB, hes barely ever at LB
    mls and rice both getting caught ahead of the ball at times, and bypassed quite easily
    both konsa and gabriel want to be aggressive cbs pushing up, mosquera/saliba kinda usually do the covering role at cb with gabriel being the aggressor

    praying for a very jammy cs 😆 45 mins to hold out
