Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says it is important for his side to beat Leeds United in the third round of the FA Cup, but insists his main focus remains elsewhere.

The Gunners needed a replay to see off the Championship outfit almost exactly a year ago and Wenger hopes to avoid a return to Elland Road this time around.

Arsenal are 2/7 to win the game at the Emirates Stadium, with Leeds 9/2 to earn a draw and force another replay.

Wenger told reporters: "It is very important for us to win against Leeds, but the basis of our life at the top level is dictated by the championship. If we can add on top of that the FA Cup, it is fantastic.

"However, our life, at the level where we are, with the wages we have and the aspirations we have, is to play in the Champions League. After that you want, of course, to win all the other trophies.

"The FA Cup is something that is for enjoyment. It is a bonus that we want."

Monday night's game is set to mark the return to Arsenal of club legend Thierry Henry, who has returned on a two-month loan from New York Red Bulls.

Henry is 10/3 to open the scoring in the game, while Arsenal are 15/2 to go on and win the FA Cup and secure their first silverware since victory in the same competition in 2005.
