Manchester United vs Arsenal .
Venue – Old Trafford .
May 12,th , 2024 .
Time – 4.30 pm.

Sunday’s solitary Premier League offering sees a pair of English football powerhouses scrap it out at Old Trafford, as Manchester United welcome Arsenal to their crumbling fortress.
Erik ten Hag’s men are reeling from their embarrassing 4-0 thrashing at Crystal Palace on Monday night, while the Gunners eventually wore down the Bournemouth defences in a 3-0 win last weekend.

If history is to repeat itself , Sunday at Old Trafford ,Man Utd will have a walk over EPL title chasers , Arsenal when the two sides file out in a decisive Premiership match .
Gunners have never had it funny when they visit Old Trafford which has been their burial ground l in past encounters of both teams .Meanwhile , Arteta seems to downplay or ignore the significance of Arsenal’s historical struggles at Old Trafford. Let history not repeat itself in the known **historical struggles ** of Gunners .

A look at the two teams historical meetings in the round leather game, favours Man Utd in terms of wins and trophies so far .but tomorrow s games is quite a different ball game as a lot have changed over the years on both sides , in both in the players as well as the Coaching crew
Arsenal and Manchester United first played a competitive match in October 1894; as at 3 September 2023, the clubs have faced each other 240 times, with United winning 99 games to Arsenal’s 88, and 53 matches drawn.

With the Premier League season reaching its climax, as Gunners face Man Utd in a match that is crucial for their title aspirations. Mikel Arteta’s team, who were one point clear of Manchester City before the weekend, need to secure a victory to maintain pressure on the reigning champions, especially as City have a game in hand.
The North London side must win both of their remaining games to keep their title dreams alive and potentially overtake Pep Guardiola’s squad. They’re up against a United team that has seen better days, with Erik ten Hag’s men achieving only two wins out of their last 10 Premier.

Manchester United have won one of their last seven league matches, with that victory coming against basement boys ,Sheffield United.
The Gunners have netted 27 goals in their last eight away games in the Premier League.
A lot of goals have been scored in their last five meetings between the two sides .
Arsenal have won only one of their last 16 trips to Old Trafford, losing 10 times in that run.
Both teams have scored in seven of United’s last nine home matches.

Manchester Utd worries is likely to be a stumbling block for their success in today’s encounter , as Mason Mount has joined Willy Kumbwala, Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, Anthony Martial and Raphael Varane on the sidelines while despite his pleas to play, Erik ten Hag has chosen against risking Lisandro Martinez.
There is more positive news surrounding Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford and Scott McTominay, though, as all three have trained ahead of this clash and could feature.

Bukayo Saka and Takehiro Tomiyasu have been described as ‘doubts’, but the former has been labelled as such in the past only to feature the very next day, so it could just be mind games from the Spaniard.
If Tomiyasu is unavailable it could open up a space at left-back for Jurrien Timber to make his first start since the opening day, with Jakub Kiwior another option in that role. .

Erik ten Hag will expect a reaction from his players after their Selhurst Park humiliation, but with no defenders back in the side and Casemiro likely to deputise at centre-back again, things could turn ugly against the title-chasing Gunners.
Arsenal have been brilliant recently, winning four matches in a row in a run which includes a 5-0 thrashing of Chelsea and a 3-2 north London derby victory, and their away form suggests they can get over their Old Trafford hoodoo on Sunday.

The Red Devils’ sole win in their last seven league games came against relegation bound Sheffield United and a visit from the rampant Gunners could see them humiliated for the second time in a week.
Ten of Arsenal’s last 12 league wins have come by at least two goals so given United have conceded 16 times In their dismal seven-match run, it seems likely they will notch another convincing victory on Sunday.

Predictions – Manchester United 2-1 Arsenal .

Happy Super Sunday and Happy Viewing .
