Arsenal host Manchester United in what could be considered one of the biggest games of the season for both clubs.
Manchester United beat Arsenal in their first Premier League game this season in what was Mikel Arteta’s only league defeat this season.
Erik ten Hag will be desperate to score a double over Arsenal, which would leave them five points behind the league leaders.
With Casemiro suspended, Ten Hag opted to play Scott McTominay over Fred as his replacement.

Manchester United will also field a front three of Antony, Wout Weghorst and Marcus Rashford, with Anthony Martial unavailable.
Arsenal’s starting XI isn’t much of a surprise considering the players who have gone down injured and the performances of those currently playing. However, new signing Leandro Trossard was signed before the deadline and will be on the bench this afternoon.
The forward four of Martin Odegaard, Eddie Nketiah, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli are unbeatable at the moment and Arteta hopes that they will be able to produce enough to beat Manchester United this time around.
