Arsenal responded in kind to Man City's win against Liverpool earlier today as the Gunners maintained their lead in the Premier League title race.

Arsenal recorded an emphatic 4-1 win against Leeds United in the Premier League on Saturday, April 1, 2023.

The Gunners looked brilliant all through the contest and found themselves leading at half time.

Gabriel Jesus returned to the starting XI for the first time since his injury late last year and restored Mikel Arteta's faith by firing home a penalty in the 35th minute to give the hosts the lead at half time.

The Gunners continued their dominance in the second half as goals from Benjamin White in the 47th minute and Gabriel Jesus again in the 55th put Arsenal 3-0 up before the hour mark.

Although, Rasmus Kristensen pulled one goal back for the Whites in the 76th minute, Arsenal would have the final say as Granit Xhaka restored the Gunners' three-goal lead in the 84th minute to seal a comfortable 4-1 win at the Emirates.
