Arsenal will play against Manchester United on Saturday in Premier League on Saturday at Emirates Stadium. The Gunners will try to maintain their good form against United too. Arsenal had thrashed Huddersfield Town with a margin of 5-0 in the previous match in the midweek. They are currently at 4th position in the League Table with 28 Points from their 14 games so far. They will try to maintain their position in the top four of the League Table by winning this match.

 

On the other hand, United are also in fine form this season. They were emerged victorious against Watford with a margin of 4-2 in the midweek. They are in the second position in the League Table with 32 Points from 14 matches so far. They will try to get at least 1 Point from Emirates considering their injury counts in the team.

Editor’s View- Why The Result And Who Will Have The Advantage

Time for both teams to go all guns blazing, though Mourinho always looks for a draw generally in his away fixtures and hopefully he pushes for a win this time around, as the two English giants need to catch up with Manchester City at the top of the points table. If the match does indeed end in a draw, it will only extend the advantage that Pep Guardiola’s side has at the moment, which will mean more joy for the Citizens and probably hurting the ambitions of the Portuguese boss and Arsene Wenger.

The team selection and the current form of both teams will surely play a key role in determining whether things work out for either manager or not.
