Arsenal vs Manchester United | Premier League | Gameweek 14 - Live

In gameweek 13, both English powerhouses triumphed handily. The Gunners thrashed West Ham United 5-2, and the Red Devils easily defeated Everton at Old Trafford.

With 25 points so far, the Gunners enter round 14 ranked second in the Premier League standings. Manchester United is currently ranked ninth in the standings after 13 rounds, having accumulated 19 points.

Manchester United defeated Everton 4-0 at Old Trafford with an outstanding performance, their fifth victory in seven games without a loss, including two under new manager Ruben Amorim.

Mikel Arteta's vibrant new Arsenal was four goals ahead in just 36 minutes of Saturday's derby, just as they were about to surpass last season's record-breaking 6-0 thumping of West Ham at the London Stadium.

However, Arsenal crushed their opponents' hopes of a massive comeback with a penalty kick from Bukayo Saka in a thrilling seven-goal first half, setting a Premier League record in the process, much like they did when they thrashed Sporting Lisbon 5-1 in the Champions League.

Even though football fans may find international breaks annoying, Arsenal has changed since the November break and will now play a historic game at their Emirates home, which will host its 500th competitive club game on Wednesday night.

Arsenal is one of just three teams in the division with an undefeated home record, along with Brentford and Brighton & Hove Albion. They have won six of their last seven meetings at the Emirates, where they are also on a 12-game scoring streak across all competitions.

In the early phases of his Mancunian journey, Amorim, the recently hired manager of Manchester United, has helped bring two stuttering strikers back to life.

After Amorim's Europa League debut against Bodo/Glimt ended 3-2 in favor of the Red Devils, Man United's 4-0 victory over relegation-threatened Everton on Sunday was made possible by braces from Marcus Rashford and Joshua Zirkzee. This victory was Man United's fourth consecutive home victory in all competitions.

The less said about their road exploits, the better. Man United's impressive eight points from their last four Premier League games has moved them out of the bottom half of the Premier League table and into ninth place, just four points behind Brighton & Hove Albion in the final Champions League spot.

The 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town in Amorim's first game extended Man United's losing streak on the road across all competitions to six games, five of which ended in a draw. So far this season, the Red Devils have only defeated Southampton away from Old Trafford.

The Manchester United supporters will also find the team's more recent head-to-head record unpleasant, as they have lost all three of their Premier League encounters with Arsenal and haven't won at the Emirates since a 3-1 FA Cup victory in January 2019 in which Alexis Sanchez scored against his old employers.

Arsenal vs Manchester United Team News

Arsenal Team News

The Gunners left the London Stadium with a few fresh injury concerns, as has been all too common for them this season. Gabriel Magalhaes had to be substituted at halftime after a problem he had acquired against Sporting flared up in the first half.

The Brazilian's future is still uncertain, as are Mikel Merino (knee), Thomas Partey (muscle), and Myles Lewis-Skelly (unspecified), who were all sidelined for the victory over West Ham due to injuries they sustained during practice.

If Gabriel is not risked for the crucial match, Jakub Kiwior may get his first Premier League start of the season. Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu are undoubtedly out for the hosts due to knee issues.

Manchester United Team News

The Red Devils have had a serious scare with captain Bruno Fernandes, who was substituted out at the 65-minute mark against Everton and was spotted on the bench with an ice pack wrapped around his ankle.

While supporters eagerly await Amorim's updates regarding his captain's health, Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo, who both received historic yellow cards during the victory over Everton, are undoubtedly out.

Fortunately for Amorim, Harry Maguire is back to full fitness following an injury and could be a direct replacement for Martinez in defense; however, Leny Yoro (foot), Victor Lindelof (groin), and Jonny Evans (knock) might all miss time again.
