Arsenal vs Manchester United Prediction & Betting tips
Arsenal will host Manchester United on Sunday, January 25, 2026, at 4:30 pm GMT (11:30 am ET) in a highly anticipated Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal haven’t been beaten by Manchester United in the Premier League since September 2022 and have dominated recent meetings. Defensive solidity has been a hallmark for both — Arsenal boast one of the best defensive records in the league, while United have tightened up under Carrick.
Arsenal:
League leaders Arsenal are looking to extend their seven-point cushion at the top of the table. The Gunners boast a formidable home record this season, remaining unbeaten at the Emirates Stadium and conceding a league-low five goals. History is also on their side, as they are unbeaten in their last six league meetings with United and have won the previous four home fixtures between the sides. Max Dowman remains a long-term absentee, but Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapie have both returned to training and could feature in the squad.
Manchester United:
Manchester United, under interim head coach Michael Carrick, arrive in London buoyed by a convincing 2-0 derby win over Manchester City and an extended five-match unbeaten run in the league. Playing with a renewed attacking conviction and clarity, the Red Devils rank first in the Premier League for xG, shots attempted, and shots on target since Carrick’s appointment. United will likely employ a compact defensive shape and look to counter-attack aggressively. Joshua Zirkzee and Matthijs de Ligt are both unavailable due to injury. Noussair Mazraoui has returned from international duty but may not be match-ready.
