Team News

Manchester United have a massive boost with the return of Bruno Fernandes and Scott McTominay. Lisandro Martinez and Marcus Rashford Were captured In the training ground, but this match comes too soon for Lisandro Martinez. 

"Yesterday Licha came to me And He wanted to play on Sunday against Arsenal, but he is not ready yet,"  Said Erik Ten Hag. However, the manager is hopeful about Marcus Rashford.

But Mason Mount picked up another fresh injury and will miss the match against Arsenal. The Red Devils will also be without Tyrell Malacia, Willy Kambwala, Victor Lindelof, Raphael Varane, Harry Maguire, and Luke Shaw Due to their respective injuries.

As for Arsenal, Bukayo Saka and Takehiro Tomiyasu have a slight injury but should be available For Today. The Gunners have no injury concerns and will visit Old Trafford with a full-fit squad.

Possible Lineup for Man United:

Onana; Dalot, Casemiro, Evans, Wan-Bissaka; McTominay, Mainoo; Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford; Hojlund

Possible Lineup for Arsenal:

Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu; Odegaard, Partey, Rice; Saka, Havertz, Trossard

Prediction: Man United 1-3 Arsenal

Since Manchester United have no genuine center backs available than Jonny Evans, Casemiro has to play as a CB! Unfortunately, Casemiro could not do well in his new role And made The defense shaky. It will be Very Difficult For Manchester United to handle Arsenal's speedy attacks. 

However, the return of Bruno Fernandes could boost the Red Devils, but Arsenal are clear favorite for today's match at Old Trafford.
