Arsenal vs Man United

Manchester United versus Arsenal was the defining Premier League rivalry for the best part of a decade; Arsene Wenger arrived in English football in 1996 ...

Instead, it rattled the crossbar in a goalless draw and Van Nistelrooy was jostled by Arsenal players with Keown yelling in his face. Eventually, there would be a detente between Wenger and Ferguson as Arsenal's threat to United receded. It's a disgrace, but I don't expect Wenger to ever apologise, he's that type of person.' Sir Alex Ferguson debates with Arsene Wenger during a meeting of the two clubs at Highbury in 2004. All hell then broke loose in the tunnel. Arsenal vs Man United will always be THE rivalry of the Premier League era and it could heat up again It remains Arsenal's only league defeat of the season. Ferguson was at first dismissive of Wenger, but quickly had to reappraise. Mikel Arteta's Arsenal are reaping the rewards of patience after the Spaniard built them back up into a title-challenging force. That was just on the pitch. Wenger would later reflect: 'Giggs's goal was what decided their season. It all got a bit too friendly, with no edge.

The Gunners currently lead the Premier League by five points but Mikel Arteta's men have a game in hand over Pep Guardiola's chasing group. Erik ten Hag's Red ...

Jack Butland is eligible after missing the Palace trip but has yet to even make the substitutes and Fred is no longer treading a suspension tightrope. Unless Leandro Trossard's move from Brighton and Hove Albion is completed early enough on Friday for him to be registered, the Belgium international is unlikely to make his debut here. Bukayo Saka has scored in his last two outings against United which can only be bettered by Thierry henry and Freddie Ljungberg who scored in three consecutive encounters. Arteta is yet to see his men concede in 2023 after a goalless draw with Newcastle United and clean sheets against both Oxford United and Tottenham Hotspur. Arteta's side have only tasted defeat once in the league so far this season and that was against United back in September. Last campaign was a 3-1 victory but United could complete the double over the Gunners for only the second time since Sir Alex Ferguson retired back in 2013.

Arsenal and Manchester United collide on Sunday in a massive contest in the Premier League title race.

Christian Eriksen will look to dictate the game’s tempo in the absence of Casemiro. Arsenal will look to replicate the midfield dominance they had against Tottenham last Sunday, and Bruno Fernandes may have to sacrifice some of his attacking desires to ensure United are not outnumbered. The resurgence of Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been one of the big surprises since the World Cup break, but now he will have to keep Gabriel Martinelli quiet.

The two traditional powerhouses face off in a match worthy of the rivalry's storied history.

But at home, Arsenal need to come out and stamp their name on the match early and often if they want to etch their name into the history books and, hopefully, the trophy at the end of the season. His addition gives the Gunners another versatile cog in the attack to keep teams on their heels and helps bolster the attack in Gabriel Jesus’ continued absence. But this is where Arsenal need to remind United and the rest of the PL that they are top for a reason. Coupled with the resplendent form of Marcus Rashford, it is all but certain that United will feel they can put Arsenal to the sword to close the gap and put a dent in the Gunners’ title run. Since 2019, Arsenal haven’t lost to United at the Emirates in the league, with three wins from four in that span. Outside of extending their league leading form, the Gunners have a chance to exact revenge over United, the only side to defeat the Gunners in league play this season back in early September, when the Gunners’ failed to deal with United’s counter attack and were without Thomas Partey, who has been Arsenal’s engine in the midfield all season.

Bench · Fabio Vieira · Leandro Trossard · Emile Smith Rowe · Mohamed Elneny · Albert Sambi Lokonga · Kieran Tierney · Takehiro Tomiyasu · Rob Holding ...

- United have only been held scoreless twice all season across competitions, but they have the lowest Goals-For total in the top nine. - Look at that bench. - Not only do I expect Trossard to make the squad Sunday, but to make his debut in the second half. A great addition to Arsenal both for this season’s pursuit and next season’s European fixtures. The last three matches have all been won by the home side and with three goals for the winning team. Top of the Premier League, doing the double in the North London Derby, a young exciting squad, and reinforcements arriving.

football.london's Arsenal writers offer some assistance to Mikel Arteta with regard to his line-up for the Premier League clash against Manchester United.

The Ghana international missed the reverse fixture at Old Trafford earlier in the season and his absence was glaring. It's a no brainer that he anchors the midfield with captain Martin Odegaard and Granit Xhaka ahead of him. Between Trossard, Emile Smith Rowe and Fabio Vieira, Mikel Arteta has some game-changers waiting in the wings if things aren't going to plan against the Red Devils on Sunday afternoon. It's a huge game for Arsenal this weekend and if I were Mikel Arteta I'd look to go as strong as possible. But given the history between the two sides and their current form, there's every chance a classic will be served up on Sunday afternoon. The big games are coming thick and fast for Arsenal.

It is the second time he refereed this fixture, having overseen our 3-0 win at Emirates Stadium in 2015. That particular rule has caught out Casemiro who received his fifth of the season against Palace and will miss this one. United beat us 3-1 in September when we topped the table. Ten Hag on us: “It’s obvious they are in a really good run, I think they deserve the position where they are now. It’s a quick reunion with Anthony Taylor, who previously took charge of us on New Year’s Eve when we beat Brighton. The individuals and the collective organisation can beat any opponent in this league." If we do, I think we have a good chance to get a good result.” There is a really good spirit as well in that team. The suspension threshold rises to 10 bookings after this match. In midfield, Casemiro was the most eye-catching summer recruit and at times he has been used in conjunction with two playmakers, but against us, Fred may deputise in his absence. Since the World Cup break, they beat Nottingham Forest, Wolves and Bournemouth, before knocking Everton out of the FA Cup. I think the players seem like they've bought into it, they have really good energy around the place.

I’m leaning conservatively and backing a draw between the two teams who both have dangerous attacks, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Arsenal take home all three points here either.

Two Premier League title contenders meet at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, as Arsenal look to extend their advantage at the top of the table.Arsenal.

Arsenal and Manchester United will have respect for one another on Sunday. In most of their recent encounters, Arsenal have been more prolific after the break. Arsenal won last weekend’s north London derby in the first half. That style brought victories over Tottenham and Liverpool at the Emirates earlier in the campaign, but the hosts did not keep a clean sheet in either encounter. An away win would move United to within five points of top spot. Arsenal have not won the Premier League title since 2004. That is what happened at Old Trafford in September. Arteta’s side are on course to get 99 points this term.

Arsenal host third-place Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday, so we simulated the game to see who could come out on top.

FIFA 23 predicts that Arsenal could be held to a 1-1 draw against United on Sunday, with Erik Ten Hag's side taking four points off the Gunners this season. The Portuguese midfielder drilled a pass into the feet of Anthony Martial, and the striker blasted a well-placed effort into the top corner to make it 1-0. United's defence were proving hard to break down, but a moment of magic saw the Gunners draw the game level. Neither side had control of the first half at the Emirates, with the opening 45 minutes being a robust tactical affair. And, the Gunners have been handed a boost ahead of the clash, with Casemiro suspended for United. Their lead at the top was extended after United beat Man City 2-1 last weekend, and the Gunners can fend off any pressure from United with victory on Sunday.

"You could see how much we wanted to win we kept pushing and pushing and finally got the breakthrough. Two top teams but of course we are disappointed when you lose this game at a late stage.

1hr 10 from KO: Remember, Arsenal have lost just once in the league this season and that came against United at Old Trafford. The Brazilian picked up a booking in the 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace on Wednesday night. 6th min: Fernandes runs onto a through ball into the box and beats Ramsdale to it as he's sent flying to the floor. Some brilliant build up play ends with Xhaka putting in a delicious teasing cross to the back post where Nketiah heads home from close range. If Arsenal are still in a position to challenge for the title upon his return then Nketiah will be a big reason for that. Odegaard's goal-bound shot flicks up in the air and it's an instinctive finish from the young forward to flick it past De Gea! A thrilling game ends with 23-year-old Nketiah having the final say as his second goal of the match gives the Gunners a vital three points to extend their lead to five clear at the top of the table. Nketiah is only the second Arsenal player to score a 90th-minute winner against Manchester United in the Premier League, after Thierry Henry in January 2007. If anything, Arteta now has a tricky decision on Jesus when he's back to full fitness in the closing stages of the season. He thrives off the support from his adoring fans and has now scored 13 goals in his last 13 starts at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal are a different beast now and the confidence they'll take from today's win, and the manner of the performance, will be huge. Erling Haaland netted a fourth-hat-trick of the season in a 3-0 win over Wolves in the early kickoff to move within two points of the Gunners at the top.

Manchester United face Nottingham Forest in the EFL Cup 1st Leg on the 26th of January away from home and the 2nd League on the 2nd of February at Old Trafford. A victory against the Gunners could help them reduce the gap to the leaders while landing equal on points with arch-rivals Manchester City. The Gunners have not conceded a single goal in 2023 owing to Aaron Ramsdale’s heroics between the sticks.

Manchester United can drag themselves into the title race with a result at league leaders Arsenal, but will have to do so without midfield lynchpin Casemiro ...

Bruno Fernandes scored for Manchester United just last time out, while Odegaard and Martinelli have 15 combined goals on the campaign. If the goals start flying, this could be a profitable venture. United fall off in the second half scoring-wise by expected goals, but they have scored some vital late goals in recent matches. Meanwhile, Arsenal's best weapon right now is the midfield trio of Granit Xhaka, Thomas Partey, and Martin Odegaard, who should find joy through the middle. The Brazilian has been loose in possession, but was sensational shielding the back line last time out, and they will miss his presence dearly. Manchester United looked spotty in the attack against Crystal Palace, and very well could have lost if not for the brilliance of David de Gea and Aaron Wan-Bissaka at key junctures. Martin Odegaard of Arsenal is fourth with 4.23 xA on just 38 chances created, for 0.111 xA per chance - Bruno Fernandes is third in the Premier League with 4.89 xA on 49 chances created, for 0.998 xA per chance. United will also be without Donny van de Beek who is out for the year with a knee injury, while Jadon Sancho is unlikely to start but has returned to training. A last-gasp equaliser by Crystal Palace forced United to share the points on Wednesday, and they saw Casemiro trigger a yellow card suspension in the process. Goals are expected, which is often the case in matchups between two top club teams. It all seemed destined for a top-drawer clash, until the final hurdle, and they slipped.

"We have to face that and learn the lessons. United then play Forest in the return leg of their cup semi-final on the following Wednesday. Today we have to accept, learn the lessons and move on. As Jamie Redknapp referenced post-match, the Arsenal winger is currently performing at a world-class level and is entering the "unplayable" territory. There were moments on the break but we have to defend much better. "Just in terms of numbers, at the moment we have 15,16 outfield players and obviously it wasn't enough and they're going to help us.
