Manchester United vs. Arsenal Match Preview and Statistics
Man Utd
Manchester United had a poor start to the season, losing back-to-back Premier League games against Brighton and Brentford. They performed better in the next few games, picking up three consecutive wins against Liverpool, Southampton, and Leicester City.
Under fire after the first two games, Erik Ten Haag switched to a more defensive approach, and it yielded positive results — with Man Utd conceding just one goal in their last three games after conceding six goals in their first two games.
Man Utd announced Brazilian forward Antony on Tuesday, making him their second most expensive player after an £81M move from Ajax. Former Real Madrid midfielder, Casemiro, is in line for his home debut in the Premier League on Sunday.
Arsenal
Arsenal is currently the best team in the Premier League this season. The Gunners haven’t dropped points in the league and are the only team to have won all their Premier league games this season.
The North London side are making a reasonable statement as title contenders, scoring two late goals to pick up 2-1 wins in their last two games.
Mikel Arteta’s side is reaping the rewards of a perfect transfer window, with star signing Gabriel Jesus bagging three goals and three assists in his first five games.

Manchester United vs. Arsenal Betting Tips and Predictions
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) @1.62 (8/13)
Man Utd has scored in four of five Premier League games this season, while Arsenal has netted in all their premier league games. Arsenal prefers an attacking style of play, and they do not sit back to see victories. Man Utd prefers to play on the counter-attack, which is very efficient for them; this should be an end-to-end attacking game. Both teams do not have a problem finding the back of the net. Backing both teams to score is an excellent option in this game.
Arsenal to Win or Draw @ 1.53 (8/15)
Arsenal is having one of their best starts to a Premier League season, they have compellingly won their games, and it would take something extraordinary to defeat them. Man Utd hasn’t been special this season, and all their wins were one-goal margin victories. The Gunners are in better form to pick up a positive result in this fixture, and with the soccer bookies offering 8/15 on an away win or draw, this is a very valuable bet.
2nd Half Highest Scoring Half @ 2.05 (21/20)
Most games involving Man Utd and Arsenal have produced more goals in the second half. The Red Devils have scored 60% of their goals in the second half, while Arsenal has scored more than half of their league goals after the restart. Both teams are usually conservative in the early stages of the game. More goals are expected in the second half of this game.
Correct Score 1-2 @ 10.0 (9/1)
There isn’t a huge gap between these teams. Arsenal is in better form and quality enough to grab a close victory. Man Utd plays at home and wouldn’t be blown away so easily. Arsenal can pick up a third consecutive 2-1 win in the Premier League.
