After a draw for Man City on Saturday, Arsenal have the opportunity to open up a four point lead at the top of the table when they visit Old Trafford this afternoon.
The Gunners have made their best start to a season since 2004-05, when they went on to finish second and they’ve shown some resilience in recent weeks, digging out wins late in games. But they don’t have too many fond memories of visits to Old Trafford where their only win in their last 15 Premier League games was a 1-0 victory in November 2020.
United go into the game having won their last three but still look a little fragile following 1-0 wins at Southampton and Leicester.
£82m signing Antony could make his debut and Casemiro his first home outing and for United’s part, a win could take them in to the top four – that felt a long way off after their first two games of the campaign.
The Red Devils have managed just five goals so far and it could be another tight match this afternoon. The bookies only just favour the hosts at 13/20 with the Gunners at 13/8 and the draw at 5/2.
Rather than trying to predict the outcome it could pay to back this one to be a slow burner. Five of the last seven meetings have finished Under 2.5 Goals and with a lot at stake for both sides it could be a bit cagey from the off. That makes no goal before 26:00 appeal at 5/6.
Brighton’s excellent start to the season was halted by Fulham last weekend but they’ve a great chance to get back to winning ways at home to struggling Leicester City.
The Foxes are one of two teams, Everton being the other, without a league win so far and if Brendan Rodgers’ pre-match press conference was anything to go by that won’t be changing today. He lamented the clubs lack of transfer activity and looks a very frustrated figure at the moment. That appears to be symptomatic of the mood in the camp and a well organised Brighton side can take advantage at home at 5/6.
