One of the Premier League’s most iconic rivalries reignites this weekend as a struggling Manchester United side hosts Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday.
During the week, Manchester United delivered one of their most impressive displays under Ruben Amorim, securing a 1-1 draw against Real Sociedad in the first leg of their UEFA Europa League Round of 16 clash. Despite the result, the Red Devils arguably merited more from the contest.

Man United vs. Arsenal predicted lineups, team news
United’s injury woes remain considerable and Amorim said he was unsure whether Harry Maguire or Manuel Ugarte would be ready to return after sitting out against Real Sociedad.
Former Arsenal youngster Chido Odi was ineligible in midweek but is an option to freshen up United’s lacklustre attack.
Patrick Dorgu remains suspended following his red card against Ipswich, meaning Noussair Mazraoui and Diogo Dalot are set to start in the wing-back positions. As the weighty absentee list below demonstrates, there isn’t really anyone else.
Man United predicted XI (3-4-2-1, right to left): Onana (GK) — Yoro, Lindelof, De Ligt — Mazraoui, Fernandes, Casemiro, Dalot — Zirkzee, Garnacho — Odi
Injured: Martinez (knee), Diallo (ankle), Shaw (undisc.), Mainoo (thigh), Collyer (knock), Mount (thigh), Bayindir (undisc.), Heaton (undisc.), Evans (muscle), Maguire (undisc, doubt), Ugarte (undisc, doubt)
Suspended: Dorgu.

Arsenal still have their plethora of attacking absentees, with Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz on the sidelines.
Mikel Arteta substituted Myles Lewis-Skelly as the teenage full-back diced with a red card in Eindhoven. Given he’s already been dismissed twice this season in the Premier League —albeit with one of those rescinded — the Gunners boss could opt for Riccardo Calafiori for this high-profile occasion.
Arsenal predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Raya (GK) — Timber, Gabriel, Saliba, Calafiori — Odegaard, Partey, Rice — Nwaneri, Merino, Trossard.
Injured: Saka (hamstring), Havertz (hamstring), Martinelli (hamstring), Jesus (ACL), Tomiyasu (knee)
Suspended: None
