Arsenal vs Manchester United
The most unpredictable match of the weekend? Very well it can be. Arsenal stopped his slide with a sure victory over Chelsea. Meanwhile, the Red Devils were beaten 4-0 at Liverpool Stadium.
Arsenal rebounded from three consecutive defeats to win 4-2 at Stamford Bridge. It was an upside down game and virtually no defense was played. Mikel Arteta rightly praised the position of his players, and Arsenal are equal on points with Tottenham. The return of the UEFA Champions League is the ultimate goal for Arsenal.

They have a group of young stars who can withstand any opponent. Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe, and star vs Chelsea, Eddie Nketiah. Defensive issues need to be addressed and that will be Arteta’s main focus. If Arsenal can win at home, they will effectively knock out their opponents in the race for fourth place.
It wasn’t a great time for Manchester United fans. Having gained so much over Norwich, Liverpool tore them to shreds. The gap between the two teams was very visible as United struggled almost over the course of the match.
Ralph Rangnick has been very outspoken about what everyone needs to change. Moreover, Revolution will have to wait until the end of the season when the new manager takes over.

In addition, they have to get help from Arsenal to stay in the hunt for the top four. Cristiano Ronaldo will be looked at for goals and moments of inspiration. Above all else, defense needs to start performing. Harry Maguire hasn’t had a great season but a good performance is needed. Therefore, there will be a lot of eyes on how United perform in this division.
Team news
Arsenal have no new injuries to report. Kieran Tierney and Thomas Partey are the long-term absentees. Whether Nuno Tavares starts from the left would be an interesting call.
potential line: Ramsdale. Soares, White, Gabriel, Tavares; Shaka, El Nini; Smith Roe, Odegaard, Saka; bitmap
Not many first-team players appeared in the defeat to Liverpool. Ronaldo and Raphael Varane should at least come back. Paul Pogba is out.
potential line: de Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Varane, Telles; McTominay, Matic; Ilanga, Fernandez, Sancho; Ronaldo
game changers
For Arsenal, much hope lies in their young strikers and Bukayo Saka in particular. 10 goals and five assists in 31 games was a very good return. Saka has finally found his place on the right flank and is a constant threat to the full-back. Moreover, he was excellent against Marcos Alonso and converted the penalty kick.
Bukayo Saka has been directly involved in 15 Premier League goals this season:

Saka was the perfect way out when the defensive line came under pressure. He can run with the ball fast and is hard to stop. Alex Telles is a bumper defender who does a better job on the other end. He will need to constantly retreat and be on guard if Saka is stopped. Likewise, Harry Maguire must also be careful not to be drawn out of position.
Only one man can maintain the leadership of United in the Champions League. Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat-trick against Norwich, including his first free kick in many years. These three goals made him reach 21 for this season, and he has so far been the leader for Manchester United. Ronaldo’s expert movement inside the box and his ability from anywhere make him a killer proposition.

Moreover, Arsenal’s defense line is not working well. There will be opportunities to take advantage of them. Similarly, Ronaldo himself can prepare players and shots on goal from any distances.
