Team News

Arsenal left the London Stadium on Saturday with a new injury concern, as Gabriel had to be withdrawn at half time and his status for this game remains up in the air.

The same goes for Mikel Merino and Thomas Partey, who both missed the win over West Ham after sustaining injuries in training, while Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu continue to recover from knee injuries.

As for United, Bruno Fernandes came off around the hour mark against Everton, but Amorim has confirmed that his skipper should be fit enough to feature at the Emirates.

Two players who are definitely unavailable, however, are the suspended Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo due to yellow card accumulation. Harry Maguire is fit again, while Leny Yoro could make the matchday squad after recovering from a foot injury.

The Gunners are favourites to get a crucial win to try and keep in touch with league leaders Liverpool at 4/9, giving them an implied win probability of 69.2%. United can be backed at 13/2, while the draw is available at 18/5.

Bukayo Saka leads the anytime goalscorer market at 7/5, followed by Kai Havertz at 8/5, while Joshua Zirkzee is shortest-priced for the visitors after his brace at the weekend, at 100/30.

Arsenal to win and both teams to score @ 15/8

The return of Martin Odegaard looks to have got the Gunners back to firing on all cylinders.

Their 5-2 thrashing of West Ham on Saturday made it three wins on the spin in all competitions, after a three-game winless run which has seen Liverpool create a nine-point gap at the top of the table.

Mikel Arteta will know how crucial three points are here, and he'll be confident his side can claim them -  the Gunners have won the last three Premier League meetings against United, securing a double over them last year.

United's powers often elude them on the road - they've lost their last five games away from home against the 'big six'.

However, Arsenal have conceded in five of their last six games across all competitions, so they are unlikely to have it all their own way against an improving United outfit, who have scored seven goals in their last two encounters.

Marcus Rashford to score anytime @ 18/5

Rashford has enjoyed a bright start under Amorim, scoring in his first game in charge against Ipswich Town in just over a minute.

The England international scored a brace at the weekend against Everton, making it three goals in his last two Premier League outings.

The 27-year-old also has a decent record against the Gunners, scoring six times in 16 appearances, including two goals in his last two visits to the Emirates.
