League leaders Arsenal entertain fellow form team Manchester United in the pick of this weekend’s Premier League fixtures.
The Gunners’ charge towards a first title in 19 years shows no sign of slowing down, and they return to their home patch having comfortably dispatched Tottenham 2-0 in last Sunday’s North London derby.
United suffered a minor setback in midweek, conceding a 91st-minute equaliser away to Crystal Palace, but Erik ten Hag’s side had won their previous nine games in all competitions – culminating with a 2-1 comeback victory over Manchester City.
Kick-off is at 4:30pm GMT. Make sure you know how to watch the Premier League (opens in new tab) wherever you are.
Team news
Arsenal have had a full week off, so Mikel Arteta ought to name the same 11 which started at Spurs; the Gunners remain without Gabriel Jesus and Reiss Nelson, while Mohamed Elneny is a doubt.
As for United, Diogo Dalot, Axel Tuanzebe and Donny van de Beek – who’s out for the season – are the confirmed injury absentees, with Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial doubtful; Casemiro serves a one-match ban after he picked up his fifth booking of the season against Palace.
Form
Arsenal have dropped just seven points all season, with their sole defeat coming back in September – away to United… The Gunners drew 0-0 with Newcastle in their last home outing, dropping points at the Emirates for the first time since last April.
Third-placed United may not have been able to make it 10 wins on the trot, but they have still won five of their last six Premier League games (four out of five since the World Cup).

VPN guide
If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won’t be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t’internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that’s a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
