Arsenal are off to a hot start in the Premier League and now look to begin their season with six consecutive league victories for only the second time in club history. To get there, the Gunners need to produce a rare win over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Bookmaker 10bet has had a very hard time separating the two and even has the odds for the first goal the same for both teams at 1.90. The odds are 14.00 for no goals at all.
※ Current Odds Date & Time: September 3rd, 7:00 A.M. (EST)
Arsenal managed to beat United away from home just a couple of seasons ago, but the 1-0 victory, which came via a Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang penalty, is the team’s lone success at Old Trafford across their last 15 league visits.
The Gunners are also looking to start off a season with three consecutive away clean sheets for the second time ever. William Saliba has been a superb addition to the backline and the whole team has defended very well as a unit.
The attack has received a major boost with the arrival of Gabriel Jesus. He heads into Sunday’s match with a new club record as the former Manchester City man has registered six goal involvements during his first five Arsenal appearances in the Premier League and that puts him above Mesut Özil. Incredibly, the 25-year-old has never scored against United in nine games, so Jesus should be very hungry for another goal on Sunday.
Manchester United boast a mini-winning streak as well after overcoming a horrible start to the season with three straight victories. Jadon Sancho has scored twice during the run and will likely be one of the key men again against Arsenal with Cristiano Ronaldo reduced to a bench role.
We should also see the debut of Anthony, who has been made the 13th €100 million man in football by United. The 22-year-old recorded 12 goals and 10 assists in 33 games for Ajax last season and picked up the most goal involvements (6) for the team in the Champions League. He’s a guy who can score and create. Anthony should do well for this United team if he can cope with the pressure of his hefty price tag.
The Red Devils are trying to get four consecutive wins on the board for the first time since April 2021. Home losses against Arsenal have been rare for them, but the overall record still backs Mikel Arteta’s men as the Gunners have lost just one of their last eight head-to-head meetings.
