Arsenal vs. Man United lineups, team news

Gabriel is the major injury concern for Arsenal heading into this match after he had to be substituted at half-time in their win against West Ham. Additionally, Mikel Merino, Thomas Partey, and Myles Lewis-Skelly are also doubts.

Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu will miss this game as they are sidelined with lengthy injuries. With so many fitness concerns in defense, Jakub Kiwior could get a rare start for Arsenal.

Arsenal predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Raya (GK) — Timber, Saliba, Kiwior, Calafiori — Odegaard, Jorginho, Rice — Saka, Havertz, Martinelli.

Injured: White, Tomiyasu, Gabriel (doubt), Merino (doubt), Partey (doubt), Lewis-Skelly (doubt)
Suspended: None.

Bruno Fernandes’ participation in this important clash is up in the air after the Manchester United skipper was seen wearing an ice pack on his ankle post-substitution in their win against Everton.

Additionally, Manchester United will be without Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo with the duo missing through suspension after picking up their fifth yellow cards of the season.

On a positive note, Leny Yoro could make the squad for the first time since signing for Manchester United after recovering from his injury.

Man United predicted XI (3-4-2-1, right to left): Onana (GK) — Mazraoui, De Ligt, Maguire — Diallo, Casemiro, Ugarte, Shaw — Zirkzee, Fernandes — Hojlund.

Injured: Evans, Lindelof, Fernandes (doubt)
Suspended: Martinez, Mainoo

Arsenal vs. Man United Prediction 

Arsenal come into this match aiming to defeat Manchester United in four consecutive Premier League games for the first time in their history. Additionally, they have only lost once in their last nine home league matches against the Red Devils, which gives them an edge.

Both sides have displayed good attacking prowess in recent weeks, with some gaps opening in their defense which the opposition can exploit. Manchester United have seen a short purple patch under Amorim, but Arsenal are the more complete side despite their injury concerns.

The Gunners should win this game, however, the Red Devils will give them a tough challenge.
