THE LOWDOWN

MAN UTD

  • The Erik ten Hag era appears to be gathering some momentum now with his side clinching a 0-1 victory against Leicester on Thursday – the Red Devils’ third straight win.
  • Following their triumph at the King Powe Stadium, ten Hag may well opt to name an unchanged starting XI for the third consecutive match, meaning that Cristiano Ronaldo will be forced to start from the bench again, as will club captain Harry Maguire and new signing Casemiro.

ARSENAL

  • It was yet another clutch win for Arsenal on Wednesday evening with a Gabriel Martinelli winner against Aston Villa ensuring that Mikel Arteta’s side maintained their 100% start to the season.
  • Arteta and Gunners fans alike will be sweating over the fitness status of a few key players ahead of their trip to Old Trafford with goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale (hamstring), full-back Oleksandr Zinchenko (knee) and Martin Odegaard (ankle) all doubtful.

THE TEAM NEWS

PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Malacia; McTominay, Eriksen; Elanga, Bruno Fernandes, Sancho; Rashford

QUESTIONABLE:

ARSENAL

PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Ramsdale; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tierney; Lokonga, Xhaka; Martinelli, Odegaard, Saka; Jesus

UNAVAILABLE: Nelson (Injured), Partey (Injured), Elneny (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Ramsdale (Injured), Zinchenko (Injured), Odegaard (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Man Utd may not exactly be pulling up any trees in terms of performances but that will not matter much to Erik ten Hag right now, who will be sitting much more comfortably in the hot seat given that his side have taken maximum points from their last three games. This will be a real test for the hosts however, as Arsenal are currently enjoying their longest winning streak in Premier League football for four years. Neither side will want to budge an inch here, and Man Utd’s new defensive resolve should ensure that this is a tight contest. With that in mind, a low-scoring encounter is expected.

TIP: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
