The Premier League returns to action this weekend and the pick of the games takes place on Sunday afternoon as Manchester United welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford.

The hosts begin the weekend in 15th place on 7 points while the visitors are in 11th place on 9 points.

Manchester United come into this match on the back of a tremendous 5-0 victory over RB Leipzig in the Champions League. It had the makings of being a tough game and despite the pressure being applied by the Germans in the first hour of the match, Manchester United had the quality to pick them off, scoring 4 goals in the final 16 minutes of the game.

That result means Manchester United are undefeated in their last 4 matches in all competitions. Two of the victories have come in the Champions League while there has been a drawn at home against Chelsea and win at Newcastle United in the Premier League.

Trends show Manchester United have been struggling to win matches at home in the Premier League. They have failed to win any of their last 5 league games at Old Trafford. This season there have been defeats at the hands of Crystal Palace and Tottenham Hotspur, conceding 9 goals in the process.

Both teams scored in 4 of Manchester United's last 5 matches in Premier League and there have been over 2.5 goals scored in 9 of their last 10 in all competitions.

Much like the hosts, Arsenal come into this game having recorded a victory in Europe on Thursday night. The Gunners were the overwhelming favourites to defeat Dundalk at home in the Europa League and they recorded a 3-0 win, having rested some of their key players.

Arsenal will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Leicester City in the Premier League last weekend. That result means Arsenal have lost each of their last two Premier League games following the 1-0 loss at Manchester City.

Trends show Arsenal have lost in 4 of their last 5 away Premier League matches but there have been some tough fixtures at Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, Liverpool, and Manchester City. Arsenal have scored at least one goal in 6 of their last 8 away Premier League games.

Team news and Manchester United will be without the suspended Anthony Martial in attack. Alex Telles has COVID-19 while Eric Bailly and Jesse Lingard are injured.

Arsenal travel without several players. Calum Chambers, David Luiz, Gabriel Martinelli, Pablo Mari Villar, and Rob Holding are among those unavailable this weekend.

Both teams will be hoping to boost their Premier League campaign by taking maximum points. Therefore, we could see an open match, with both teams trying to score goals but that could suit the visitors more than Manchester United. An away win with both teams to score is a possibility.
