Manchester United vs Arsenal – English Premier League Betting Tips

Arsenal travel to Old Trafford in what looks like a weekend cracker between two top teams reviving their season. While Arsenal looks like the team is doing an excellent job, Man United’s late Ole sack looked to have held them back. 

Manchester United managed to hold the league leaders, Chelsea, to a draw last weekend. Also, they have appointed a new interim manager who might see an upturn in Manchester United’s form. 

Arsenal’s improving form has seen them win lesser teams with ease but struggled to win against the top teams in the Premier League this season, but this match against United might be a game-changer. We present our tips for this match below:

Manchester United Form and Team News

Manchester United has seen a terrible run of results since the last two months, dramatically throwing them off the title challenge early. Ralf Rangnick was confirmed Manchester United boss on Monday, and it would be interesting to see how the team would line up. 

Since a new manager is starting his first match against Arsenal, it is not fair to judge his team by the performances of the past manager. Also, there is the ‘new manager bounce’ phenomenon where players would want to impress the new manager to start games. 

For the team news, Pogba P (Thigh Injury), Shaw L (Head Injury), and Varane R (Muscle Injury) are still out due to injury, and Cavani is a doubt as he just recovered from injury. 

Arsenal Form and Team News

Arsenal seems to have found their rhythm even though they fall a long way off the top shots in the league. Their match-winning streak was halted by Liverpool, who thrashed them 4-0, and other than that, they have won 4 games from 5 matches.  

They head into this match full of confidence, though their squad is still not up to the quality to match Man United. However, it is essential to note that in their last 5 games against Manchester United, they have won 4 and drawn 1 in all competitions. 

On the team news, Kolasinac S (Ankle Injury) and Xhaka G are out for this fixture, while Saka is a doubt with a Muscle injury.

Our Tipsters Angle

Manchester United will be looking to get their first EPL to win after a run of 4 matches with disappointing results. Their last games under their previous manager ended in chaos, and we will see how the team will shape up against Arsenal. 

Arsenal, on their part, will be looking to capitalize on an unstable Manchester United and increase their winning streak, but with Saka a doubt for the game, which has been their star player, this might be a challenging goal to achieve for Arteta. 

Tip 1: Arsenal Over 3.5 Goals  

Arsenal has one outcome occurring in more than 80% of their games (minus against some top teams), and that is having 4+ corners in favor of them. Arteta’s team setup and attacking style have made this outcome possible in their matches, and we think there will be a repeat of this here. 

Also, Manchester United are still not solid in the midfield to stop the threats of Arsenal’s young speedsters, but we will know about that during the match. We think Arsenal will have more than 3 coners on this match, and At the Casumo Sportsbook, Over 3.5 corners is available at odds of 1.42.

Tip 2: Arsenal +2 (European Handicap)

Currently, Arsenal is the better of the two teams. Arsenal almost kept Liverpool quiet during their match against Liverpool, and we think they can replicate that here against a fragile Red Devils side. 

Also, in their last 5 matches in all seasons, Arsenal has won 4 and drawn 1, so we think that even if they are to lose this match, it wouldn’t be with more than 1 goal. Arsenal +2 Handicap is available for this match at Casumo sportsbook at 1.23 odds, and we think it is a good value for this match. 

Conclusion

This match can go either way because Manchester United desperately needs a statement win, and Arsenal can pounce on a vulnerable Manchester United side. However, with the appointment of a new coach, Manchester United might win this match easily.

Whichever outcome happens in the match, the previous game between these two sides has all been entertaining, and we will get an entertaining match.
