Sunday’s Premier League clash between Arsenal and Manchester United promises to be an entertaining affair with both sides desperate for a place in the top four.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s rampant Red Devils are one point better off than the Gunners going into the match – and after his side beat them at the Emirates 3-1 in the FA Cup in January it would be bold to back against them prevailing again.
What’s more, United also boast a brilliant record against Arsenal in the last eight years.
The Red Devils have won eight, drawn five and lost just two of the 15 Premier League matches between the sides since May 2011.
Arsenal’s last two league wins came against United in May 2017 and October 2015 respectively – and they will be hoping they can better their record at the Emirates on Sunday.
