Premier League Match Prediction: Arsenal vs Man United, December 4

The Gunners' championship ambitions have noticeably sagged, and they need to try to revive them somehow. Arsenal are again considered the favourites for the match, and quite obvious ones at that, but how well-deserved is this? In one of today's accurate football predictions, we will try to determine if Man United is ready to spoil the mood of another top team.

Arsenal

The Gunners probably want to forget the November period like a bad dream. Three matches, two defeats and only two goals scored - a performance you would rather forget. Yes, you can make allowances for the level of their opponents, but for a team that wants to be considered top-tier, this is a weak excuse.

As a result, the gap from the leader - Liverpool - is nine points, Arsenal is not even in the top three now, with several teams nipping at their heels, including Chelsea and Brighton.

Who will play for Arsenal

Leandro Trossard arrived from the national team with an injury, its severity is still being clarified. It is better not to expect the Belgian in the starting lineup. Among the positive aspects, one can highlight the return to training of Kieran Tierney. He is currently training according to an individual program, but this is already progress. Calafiori is also expected to have recovered from his injury, though his participation this weekend remains doubtful.

Manchester United

Following Erik ten Hag's dismissal, the team's results have started to improve. Ruud van nistelrooy’s tenure concluded with a draw with Chelsea in the Premier League, then victory over PAOK in Europa League and finally 3-0 victory over Leicester City in the League Cup. Indeed, there is nothing particularly outstanding in this, but stability and positive changes in the game are already visible.However, the latest victory over Nottingham Forest gives a certain feeling that Gunners are back in business.

Who will play for Manchester United

Mount has recently recovered, but it would be premature to expect him in the starting lineup. Most likely, there will be no surprises, even though many key players featured in the Europa League midweek. Casemiro and Ugarte currently lack serious competition. The same applies to the defensive flanks, where Mazraoui and Dalot have been steady starters. Ruben Amorim does not have much choice in the center of defense and on the flanks of attack either.

Match prediction

Based on Arsenal’s well coming out of the international break, their chances of winning are definitely high, giving them 69.2%. The visitors stand a good chance of avoiding defeat. If they lose, it will likely be by a minimal margin. We recommend betting on the visitors with a handicap of (0) 1.80.
