In what is a stacked European schedule throughout Sunday, we are certainly treated to a host of heavyweight affairs from across the continent.
On an afternoon that is highlighted by Manchester United’s trip to Arsenal, we have found a pair of contests that can potentially offer a great return for your Sunday flutter.
16:30 Arsenal vs Manchester United
Eventually left frustrated at the Emirates last weekend as they had to settle for a 2-2 stalemate against Fulham, Arsenal will certainly be seeking an immediate response here. While the Gunners might have dropped their first Premier League points of the season last time out, Mikel Arteta’s young squad will be smelling the opportunity to make a heavyweight statement.
Opening the 2023/24 campaign with a 2-1 win against Nottingham Forest on August 12th, Sunday’s hosts should be excited by their eye-catching record in north London.
Despite dropping a pair of points against the Cottagers last weekend, Arteta’s side have suffered just a single Premier League defeat in front of their own supporters from their last 10 straight Premier League appearances.
Despite missing out on the chance to get their hands on a first domestic crown since 2004 last season, it is no secret that Arsenal have their sights firmly set on mounting another title charge this time around.
Although Manchester United might have been last seen mounting a stunning second-half comeback against Nottingham Forest as they eventually snatched a 3-2 win, Erik ten Hag’s men have struggled to find much stability since opening up the new campaign.
Last seen on their travels getting hit with a routine 2-0 loss against Tottenham on August 19th, the former Ajax boss will have a continued headache over his side’s struggles away from Old Trafford.
In fact, continuing on from last season, United have mustered just a pair of wins from any of their last eight Premier League showdowns outside the red half of Manchester.
Likewise, collecting just a single point from any of their last four top-flight trips to the Emirates, we are expecting an enjoyable home victory this weekend.

17:30 Atletico Madrid vs Sevilla
Cruising their way to another Champions League ticket last season, Atletico Madrid appear to have their sights set on mounting a genuine La Liga title charge this time around. Opening up the 2023/24 campaign with a major flurry and laying down quite the statement of intent, Sunday’s hosts will certainly be smelling the chance to make another statement when they return to the capital here.
Last seen earlier in the week putting in a stunning performance away at Rayo Vallecano as they claimed a 7-0 romp on their travels, Diego Simeone’s men should find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high.
Opening proceedings with a 3-1 victory at home against Granada on August 14th, Atletico have also gained a reputation for their continued purple patch at the Metropolitano Stadium.
In fact, continuing on from last season, the former Spanish champions have won each of their last 10 straight La Liga showdowns in front of their own supporters – a run that stems all the way back to February 4th.
On the flip side, while Sevilla might have got their hands on a history-making seventh Europa League crown back in June, it is no secret that Sunday’s guests are in the midst of a real nightmare.
Dealing with a string of financial issues and coming under a huge amount of scrutiny, Los Nervionenses have lost each of their opening three La Liga appearances and are the only top-flight club that are yet to put a single point on the board.
Likewise, hit with a 6-1 drumming when they travelled to the Metropolitano Stadium back on March 4th, Sevilla should be bracing themselves for another heavyweight challenge this weekend.
