Match Details
Arsenal welcome Manchester United to the Emirates in a highly anticipated clash, buoyed by a remarkable upturn in form since Martin Ødegaard’s return from a lengthy ankle injury. The Gunners have been scintillating in recent outings, netting five goals in back-to-back matches across competitions, with each goal scored by a different player. Currently sitting fourth in the Premier League table, Arsenal trail leaders Liverpool by nine points. Despite their attacking resurgence, Mikel Arteta’s side must navigate a demanding schedule, compounded by injuries to Mikel Merino and Thomas Partey, along with longer-term absentee Ben White. The relentless December fixture congestion presents an additional challenge.
Manchester United, meanwhile, arrive in London revitalised under new manager Ruben Amorim. Following a dismal start to the season that saw them languishing in 14th and led to Erik ten Hag's sacking, United have climbed to seventh in the table. Amorim's appointment has breathed new life into the side, with Marcus Rashford rediscovering his sharpness after a prolonged slump. However, the Red Devils face notable absences, including suspended Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo, which could leave gaps in their lineup. Both teams enter this encounter with high stakes, making for an electrifying showdown under the Emirates floodlights.
Arsenal. United. You know what to do. See you at the pub!
