With all eyes falling on Old Trafford this weekend, Manchester United and Arsenal will meet on Sunday afternoon for a heavyweight Premier League showdown.
Storming their way to a sensational Champions League advantage earlier in the week as they landed a thumping 7-1 victory against PSV, Mikel Arteta’s squad should be relishing a trip to their bitter historic rivals.
Firmly sat in the bottom-half of the Premier League table and only continuing to show a string of glaring issues this season, Man United will once again have a huge amount of pressure on their shoulders here.
Ahead of what could be another dramatic afternoon from Old Trafford, we have taken a look at some of the most appealing Manchester United vs Arsenal Bet Builder Tips.
Arsenal seeking some immediate revenge
Watching their FA Cup adventure come to an end on January 12th after being hit with penalties heartbreak against Manchester United, Arsenal will certainly be seeking some immediate revenge here.
While the Gunners might open this weekend’s fixtures sat 13 points adrift of runaway leaders Liverpool, Arteta’s squad will be excited by a dominant Premier League record against their historic rivals.
Landing a 2-0 win when they welcomed the Red Devils to north London for their reverse Premier League showdown on December 4th, Arsenal have won all of their last four top-flight matchups against Man United by an aggregate score of 9-3.
Likewise, securing a 1-0 victory when they last travelled to Old Trafford in Premier League action back in May 2024, Arteta’s men have also registered 15 points from their previous six top-flight contests.
It should also be noted, despite landing just a single win from any of their previous four showdowns against Premier League opposition, the Gunners have suffered just a sole domestic defeat outside of north London since returning from November’s International break.

Pressure boils around Old Trafford
Suffering a Europa League collapse away at Real Sociedad earlier in the week, Manchester United have drastically failed to find any kind of fluidity since Amorim’s arrival at Old Trafford.
Despite much excitement around Manchester following the appointment of the former Sporting Lisbon boss back in November, Sunday’s hosts have recorded just a sole win from any of their previous five appearances across all competitions.
Firmly sat in the bottom-half of the Premier League table and breaking a string of unwanted records this season, Amorim’s downbeat squad have also gained a reputation for their glaring defensive issues.
Despite signing off February with a dramatic 3-2 victory against relegation scrappers Ipswich, Man United have remarkably failed to muster a single clean sheet at Old Trafford since a 4-0 romp against Everton on December 1st.
With the Old Trafford support making their frustrations abundantly clear, United have a huge amount of pressure on their shoulders when they return to the red half of Manchester this weekend.

The Gunners seeking a repeat display
While Arsenal might be unable to call upon a host of their attacking superstars due to respective long-term injury issues, the Gunners will take plenty of positives away from a remarkable European performance in midweek.
Putting PSV to the sword and already with one eye on the Champions League quarter-finals, Sunday’s guests certainly clicked into top gear as they recorded seven European goals in a single game for the first time in their history.
Although Spanish international Mikel Merino might have recorded three goals in his previous four appearances across all competitions since being deployed in a false nine role, 17-year-old sensation Ethan Nwaneri could steal all of the headlines here.
Once again finding the net in Holland earlier in the week and notching a second Champions League strike, Arsenal’s academy graduate has quickly become one of Europe’s hottest young starlets.
Likewise, notching three goals in his last seven outings, there has even been speculation that Nwaneri could be handed a full England debut before the end of the season.
