Arsenal play host to Manchester United in the Premier League, with the two old rivals set to do battle once again.
The Gunners are in some fine form, having picked up three consecutive wins across league and cup competitions, while showing the sort of free-flowing football fans have been crying out for.
In United, Mikel Arteta will face a new kind of challenge, with new manager Ruben Amorim looking to set a marker with his first real challenge at the helm.
Man United have picked up two wins and one draw from his opening three games, with the head coach looking to implement his style.
Arsenal will cause plenty of problems though, especially if they are at their best as they have shown in recent matches.
So with that said, here’s a look at everything you need to know ahead of Arsenal vs Manchester United in the Premier League.

Arsenal team updates and injury news
Gabriel Magalhaes is an injury concern once again as the defender was brought off at half-time in Arsenal’s 5-2 win over West Ham.
Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu are sidelined for the long-term as they look to battle their way back to fitness.
Defender Riccardo Calafiori is having to manage his minutes, having been substituted in the win over the Hammers.
Manchester United team news and injury updates
Kobbie Mainoo and Lisandro Martinez are suspended for their side on Wednesday after the pair picked up their fifth yellow card of the season respectively.
The Man United duo aren’t the only two out of action though, with Leny Yoro, Victor Lindelof and Jonny Evans all doubts at the back.
It creates an injury dilemma in the backline for Amorim, who will have to figure out his best team to take on Arsenal.
Arsenal vs Manchester United prediction
Both Arsenal and Manchester United head into the game with some momentum to take with them, which should make for an interesting spectacle.
The Gunners are a bit more of a settled side with players that are used to playing in their system, looking almost automatic in their play.
United, on the other hand, look exactly like a team that is trying to unlearn everything from an old manager and learn everything the new man is trying to tell them.
It has made for some far from perfect displays, even if the results have taken a slight uptick in more favourable showdowns.
While the Red Devils are showing small signs of hope, if Arsenal are on their game then they will be able to dismantle them.
Expect a potential physical bullying from Mikel Arteta’s side, one that shows why they’re so good in both boxes.
Score prediction: Arsenal 2-0 Man United.
