THE PREDICTION

It has been a tough start to the season for Sheffield United who have lost all three league games and have failed to score in those games as second-season syndrome looks to be setting in. they were dealt a major blow by the news that Jack O’Connell could be out for the entire season with a serious knee injury. That is a significant loss to them defensively and after going through last season with very few injuries, his will be a new challenge for Chris Wilder. They make the trip to face Arsenal who will be looking to bounce back from the loss to Liverpool last Monday. Mikel Arteta has certainly improved his team and their performances are getting back, and they can expose the Blades’ early season struggles here and take all three points.
