MANCHESTER UNITED
Following their dismal start to the season, Man United seem to be gradually taking shape under new man Ten Haag. While back to back losses against Brighton and Brentford raised question about United’s readiness for the new campaign, recent results seem to be boosting fans’ confidence and hope this new term.
Looking at their last wins, although a bit scrappy, Man United will head into this game on a high. In fact, their confidence will be bolstered by their good head to head record against Arsenal and United’s history of halting a team’s unbeaten run.
In addition, the Red Devils will be hoping to see their summer acquisitions play a role in defense, upfront and in the middle of the pack, in their bid to pick a 4th win in a row and break Arsenal perfect start so far.
ARSENAL
Going by their performance so far, Arteta’s men are certainly a force to reckon with this season. While some might argue that they have garnered their 5 consecutive wins against less fancied opponents, the way these results came and how they played reflects how much of a changed side Arsenal are under Arteta’s tutelage.
Furthermore, the manner in which summer signings like Jesus and co have blended in the squad shows the threat Arsenal pose to rivals and fellow contenders this season. In this tie, they will hope to make it 6 wins in 6. However, they must overcome United’s current resurgence and good head to head record.

OUR PREVIEW AND BETTING PREDICTIONS FOR MANCHESTER UNITED Vs ARSENAL
For fans of these sides and even neutrals, this tie will definitely serve some edge of the seat drama all round.
The quest of both teams to protect their winning streak makes this a competitive tie to anticipate.
Based on the rivalry, current form and history between this sides, we are anticipating a highly intriguing tie with the second half producing the most goals. For our first betting tip today, WSB has odd of 2.01.
While Arsenal are, given how they’ve navigated last 5 games, arguably the most improved side this season, a trip to Old Trafford is always a tricky one. In addition, Man United’s somewhat resurgence, although a bit slow, poses a threat to Arteta’s perfect start so far. Also, Arsenal’s injury concerns especially in the midfield could cost them here.
To this end, we are backing the Red Devils to win or draw with less than 4 goals scored. For this double chance combo, we have Paripesa’s odd of 2.15.
