Arsenal host Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium this Sunday while they aim to extend their lead at the summit.
The Gunners have moved seven points clear of their rivals despite recent goalless draws. Manager Mikel Arteta will be confident after a successful midweek European performance. Arsenal currently boast a formidable home record and have not lost at the Emirates this season. A victory tonight would cement their title credentials against a resurgent United side.
Arsenal Team News
Mikel Arteta manages a squad that is welcoming back several key defensive figures. Notably, Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapié are both pushing for a start after returning to training. Consequently, the manager must decide whether to risk them immediately in such a high-intensity game. Kai Havertz is also back but will likely feature from the bench.
David Raya will start in goal behind a settled central defensive partnership. William Saliba remains vital to the backline’s success this season. Arsenal concede a goal only once every 115 minutes when the Frenchman is playing. In attack, Viktor Gyökeres may get the nod over Gabriel Jesus. Martin Ødegaard will captain the side and pull the strings from midfield.
Arsenal Predicted Lineup
Arsenal predicted XI: Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Hincapié; Ødegaard, Zubimendi, Rice; Saka, Gyökeres, Trossard
