Arsenal’s visit to Old Trafford presents a crucial opportunity to keep their Premier League title hopes alive. Facing a struggling Manchester United, Mikel Arteta’s side, buoyed by four consecutive wins, aims to maintain momentum. Here’s the expected lineup:
- GK: David Raya – Securing his 15th clean sheet last week, Raya solidifies his position.
- RB: Ben White – Tasked with containing Rashford’s threat, White must stay vigilant.
- CB: William Saliba – Despite past struggles, Saliba rarely falters.
- CB: Gabriel – Despite occasional clumsiness, Gabriel’s season has been strong.
- LB: Takehiro Tomiyasu – Likely retaining his spot for consistency.
- CM: Thomas Partey – His recent form has been vital for Arsenal.
- CM: Declan Rice – A key performer during the winning streak, Rice thrives in midfield battles.
- CM: Martin Odegaard – Poised to exploit United’s defensive vulnerabilities.
- RW: Bukayo Saka – Back in form, Saka faces a tough duel against Wan Bissaka.
- ST: Kai Havertz – A standout performer, Havertz’s prowess upfront could negate the need for summer signings.
- LW: Leandro Trossard – Continues to impress, Trossard maintains his starting role.
