In years gone by, Man Utd and Arsenal competed at the very top of the Premier League, battling it out for English football’s top prize. But in recent years, both sides have struggled and found themselves on a downwards trajectory. However, they are now rebuilding, and the rivalry between the two historic clubs still burns bright.
Man Utd endured a disastrous start to the season, losing to Brighton before being humiliated by Brentford, but have recently found form winning three on the spin, including a victory over another fierce rival, Liverpool. The deadline day signing of Brazilian winger Antony from Ajax has further boosted the mood around Stretford, and the skillster could be in line to make his debut against the Gunners.
Meanwhile, Arsenal have had the perfect start to their EPL campaign winning five in a row. After the heartbreak of narrowly missing out on Champions League qualification last season, Mikel Arteta’s men have a real point to prove, and so far they are drilling it home emphatically. This season, they’ve scored 13 goals, three of them by new signing Gabriel Jesus, while only conceding four, and have been the league pace setters even above reigning champions Man City.
Unfortunately, familiar injury problems are starting to rear their head in North London. First-choice goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale and creative spark Martin Odegaard could miss the trip to Old Trafford, and new defensive signing Oleksandr Zinchenko hasn’t trained with the squad this week either, so is expected to be absent.
This is a fixture with plenty of history, and with both teams in excellent form right now, it should be a cracking game. Can Man Utd under Erik ten Hag continue to move in the right direction, or will Arsenal’s flawless start to the season go on for another week? Find out by watching a Man Utd vs Arsenal live stream.
