"Opening this weekend's fixtures holding a commanding seven-point buffer at the top of the table, the Gunners are in the midst of what has become an iconic fairytale and they have their sights set on completing a famous silverware sweep in 2026. Getting Michael Carrick's second temporary reigning underway with a sensational 2-0 victory in the Manchester derby last weekend, the Red Devils will travel to the capital dreaming of the chance to claim another heavyweight scalp."
"While Arsenal might have been forced to settle for a 0-0 stalemate away at relegation scrappers Nottingham Forest last weekend, Mikel Arteta's camp have continued to shatter a string of records this season. Holding a commanding seven-point buffer at the top of the Premier League table, the Gunners are rightfully installed as a landslide contender to get their hands on a first domestic crown since way back in 2004."
"Extending on their remarkable Champions League romp earlier in the week as they stormed their way to an empathic 3-1 romp away at Italian giants inter Milan, Arteta will be dreaming of a repeat display here. Getting their EFL Cup semi-final adventure underway with an action-packed 3-2 victory against historic local rivals Chelsea, Arsenal will also be excited by a dominant record against Sunday's guests."
Arsenal lead the Premier League by seven points and pursue a domestic crown, after a 0-0 draw at Nottingham Forest amid a season of record-breaking performances. The side secured a 3-1 Champions League victory at inter Milan and opened an EFL Cup semi-final tie with a 3-2 win over Chelsea. Arsenal have gained 16 points from six consecutive Premier League meetings with Manchester United and enter the fixture as favourites. Manchester United manager Michael Carrick returned as interim boss and began his second stint with a 2-0 Manchester derby victory, and United travel to the Emirates seeking an upset.
