Manchester United v Arsenal Betting Tips [9 March 2025]

Manchester United are set for another tough test in their Premier League campaign this weekend when they host Arsenal. This Sunday clash finds United 14th in the league standings, while Arsenal are second. Read below for our preview and prediction.

With both sides coming from away matches in Europe, United will be at a disadvantage, having played two days after Arsenal. The Red Devils could only manage a 1-1 draw at Real Sociedad, and have one win in their last five matches.

They are seeking consecutive league wins for the first time this season. At home, they’ve lost half of their 14 league matches this season.

For the first time this season Arsenal failed to score in back-to-back league matches as they drew 0-0 with Nottingham Forest. However, when they went out for their Champions League game against PSV, they returned having won 7-1.

It then follows that Arsenal will be favorites heading to Old Trafford. This will mark the third meeting between the two sides and Arsenal will be eyeing a double over their hosts.

They won 2-0 in the reverse meeting but United won on post-match penalties in their FA Cup meeting in January. In league matches alone, Arsenal have four straight wins against United.

The Gunners will also be seeking a 10th unbeaten away game.

The gap between these two sides says all about their seasons. Arsenal are 21 points and 10 places ahead of Manchester United. Ahead of this game, the Gunners are also in better shape and have enjoyed recent success against United.

In the last four league meetings between these two, Arsenal banked a maximum 12 points. They find United struggling especially at home in the league. The Red Devils lost five times in their last seven league games at Old Trafford. Our prediction for Manchester United v Arsenal is for Arsenal to win.
