In the central match of the Premier League round, leaders Arsenal hosts Manchester United. The hosts have demonstrated the most reliable defense in the league (14 goals conceded), but have struggled to score in recent Premier League matches. The visitors, on the other hand, have shown inconsistency, but their attack is capable of causing problems, especially after the victory over Manchester City. Under their new coach, the "Devils" are now unpredictable.
The history of head-to-head matches at the Emirates Stadium in recent years has favored Arsenal. However, United rarely leave without scoring, demonstrating character even in less than ideal matches. Both derbies this season have been high-scoring.
Given the status of the match and the motivation of both teams to avoid defeat, an open and emotional game is expected. Arsenal's defense could be tested, and Manchester United have players capable of scoring.
