Cardiff City will hope to grab their first goal of the season when they host an Arsenal side that's pursuing back-to-back wins. LiveSoccerTV is on hand to provide all the info you need to watch the encounter.

Match Preview

Arsenal travels to Cardiff City with the sole objective of securing two successive victories after a tough start to the new season. Unai Emery's side got off on the wrong foot in the first two games, suffering consecutive defeats against Manchester City and Chelsea.

The Emirates outfit, however, bounced back by recording their first win of the season via a 3-1 scoreline over West Ham United. With the international break just around the corner, a win on Sunday could do a lot of good to the confidence of the squad.

The upcoming encounter is likely to welcome the return of Mesut Ozil. The 29-year-old midfielder, who has been the subject of multiple headlines in recent weeks for his surprise withdrawal from the German national team and alongside a supposed fallout with Unai Emery, missed last weekend's game with an illness.

With his club manager coming out to squash speculation of an existing grudge, Ozil could be welcomed back into the starting eleven against Cardiff. His compatriot and Arsenal's summer signing Bernd Leno, nevertheless, may have to wait with Unai Emery preferring Pep Cech in-between the sticks.

For Cardiff, nothing will be more invigorating than finally breaking the deadlock after three unsuccessful attempts. Despite accumulating two points from these runouts, the Bluebirds are yet to score a single goal upon their return to top-flight English football this season.

This raises a massive cause for alarm as the Welsh club, interestingly, finished two of these first three opening games with a man more than their opponents. With the team gearing up to take on Chelsea and Manchester City in succession after Sunday's clash, the essence of a win over the Gunners cannot be overemphasized although their 13-game winless run against their upcoming opponents barely help their case.
