Coming up next is the continuation and the final fixture of premier league matchday 7. Man United who are coming from their shocking 2 nil defeat away at West Ham last week will host Arsenal as both teams battle it out in their first meeting this season.
Man United are currently not in a good form so far, their form so far has been pretty disappointing in terms of performances and results. Their last fixture against West Ham saw them suffer disappointing loss as their problems continue to compound. Solskjaer has received a lot of criticism for Man United’s performances and results in most of their games so far despite adding new players to this team. The team haven’t yet kicked off to gear as they are still struggling to find a solution to their poor form. Man United face a very difficult task at home against Arsenal as this result can go either way. However, playing at home could prove pivotal as Man United know how to get the job done against Arsenal especially at Old Trafford.
Expected formation and tactics, Man United will most likely set up in their usual 4-2-3-1 formation. They are a very good counter-attacking team and will try to utilize a similar tactics to the one they used against Chelsea in matchday 1. The have forwards who can be very dangerous especially when given spaces to operate and for them, it will be a matter of capitalizing on counter-attacking opportunities to hurt Arsenal.
Arsenal have had a fair share of ups and downs this season but are currently in a very good position and a win in this fixture could see them return back to the top 4 positions. The Gunners are a much improved team compared to last season, and their new additions to the squad have brought a new breath of freshness to the team. They will be going up against a Man United team who are not in good form at the moment, and for them, it is a great opportunity to get something positive from the game.
Expected formation and tactics, Arsenal will most likely set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Emery will want his team to keep the ball and try to utilize the pace and qualities of their attackers to hurt Man United.
What do you think will be the outcome of this fixture?
