Why you should back Manchester United'
The Red Devils have looked like a different team since and former captain were relegated to the bench. can still provide some creativity when he comes on, but his absence has allowed new captain more freedom. Fernandes has one goal, but he scored 18 and set up 12 more the season before his teammate returned to the team. The attack led by Fernandes, and has looked dangerous at times and should give the Arsenal back line some trouble.
The Gunners have beaten just one team with more than one victory through the first five games, and they have been hit by injuries. Both teams played at midweek and have Europa League games Thursday, so Arsenal could have some depth problems. Goalkeeper also might not be 100% fit (if he plays). Sancho has two goals, including the winner Thursday, and Rashford has a goal and an assist. Manchester United snapped a six-game league winless streak against the Gunners in the last meeting at Old Trafford, a 3-2 victory.' ' ' '
Why you should back Arsenal
The Gunners attack has looked much different than last year's through the first five games. Arsenal finished fifth in the table last season, 11 points clear of sixth-place United, despite a sluggish attack, and the addition of Brazilian has transformed their offense. He has three goals and three assists through five games, and he has pushed fellow Brazilian to a higher level. Both scored in Wednesday's victory against Villa, giving the 21-year-old Martinelli three goals, as well. Arsenal have scored 13 goals and conceded four.
and have played huge roles in the Brazilians' success, but Odegaard's availability is in doubt. The Norwegian also has scored three times, so he would be missed, but is a capable replacement. The 22-year-old scored 10 goals last season, second on the team to Saka's 11. Arsenal have a 6% edge in possession so far (57-51), so they should control the tempo, and they have allowed just 12 shots on target, second-fewest in the league. United have scored just five goals in their first five matches.
