  • Welcome to Arsenal vs Man Utd

    The Gunners are looking to get themselves back in the title race, hoping that Liverpool drop points, so need to keep up the pressure on The Reds with victory this evening.

    Arsenal have ben hit with a major injury blow for tonight’s game as Gabriel has been ruled out.

    He is added to the injury list along with Mikel Merino, Thomas Partey and Myles Lewis-Skelly.

    All of these players missed the win over West Ham and it is unknown whether they will feature at all for the visit of the Red Devils.

    Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu are all definitely missing as they look to recover from long-term injuries, Jakub Kiwior could get the nod for Arteta’s side.

    For Man Utd, they will be sweating on the health of Bruno Fernandes who had an ice-pack on his ankle after coming off against Everton.

    Amorim expects him to be fit for this one however, but Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo will definitely miss out on the trip to North London.

    Harry Maguire is fit once again, while Leny Yoro is expected to make his first matchday squad since joining the Red Devils in the summer.

    Jonny Evans, Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw are likely to be absentees for the visitors too.
