Victor Lindelof will replace the injured Raphael Varane in this game. It will be the first start for the Swedish defender this season. Lindelof and Manchester United’s defense will struggle against the Gunners at the Emirates, as they did against a weaker offense in Nottingham Forest. The odds are enticing for Victor to get a yellow here.

Bukayo Saka is the main man at Arsenal now, and most of the dangerous chances are from his side. He scored two goals in the first three Premier League games and is in good form. Saka scored in three consecutive head-to-head games against Man United in the EPL.
Arsenal will have a quite healthy squad for this game, as Timber is the only player out with an injury, while Zinchenko and Jesus came back and are expected to be ready for this clash.
