English Premier League: Manchester United vs Arsenal

Home Manchester United: The trough hit bottom last season, and the midfield problem is to be solved

Manchester United ranked 15th in the Premier League last season with 11 wins, 8 draws, 19 losses and 41 points, setting the worst ranking in the Premier League in team history. Serious problems were exposed on both ends of offense and defense: they only scored 44 goals in 38 rounds (13th in the league), but conceded 58 goals (15th in the league), with a goal difference of -14. The team's structural hidden dangers in the midfield are particularly prominent. The long-term lack of top players in the back midfield position has led to low offense and defense conversion efficiency. The success rate of midfield interception in the past three seasons has ranked lower in the league. Although the forward restructuring has introduced three powerful players including Zilkze and Yoro in the new season, the running-in effect still needs time to test. However, Manchester United's home record is still good, with 7 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in 19 home games last season. In recent friendly matches, they beat Real Betis 2-1 and drew 1-1 with Liverpool, and their condition has rebounded.

Attend team Arsenal: Last season's runner-up was steady, and the forward line strengthened the championship

Arsenal ranked second in the Premier League last season with 28 wins, 5 draws, 5 losses and 89 points, only 2 points behind the champion Manchester City, continuing its competitiveness in the championship. The team has been in a stable state recently, with 3 wins and 2 draws in the last five friendly matches, including a 3-0 victory over Athletic Bilbao and a 1-1 draw with Chelsea. The forward strengthening became the biggest highlight: the summer transfer window signed the Portuguese Super League Golden Boot, Zhekelais, with a team record of £65 million. His efficiency of contributing 43 goals and 14 assists in 43 games last season is terrifying. In addition to the fast horses on the wing, such as Saka, Martinelli, Arsenal's offensive firepower is expected to be upgraded again. In addition, the team's away record is trustworthy, with 12 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses in 19 away games last season, ranking second in the league in away points.

Results prediction: Arsenal scored three-pointers away

Although Manchester United sits at home and the reorganization of the front line brings certain variables, the historical confrontation data is difficult to be optimistic: both sides have drawn 2 and lost 4 in the last 6 matches, and they lost 0-1 in both rounds last season. Arsenal is in a hot state, with the forward strengthening of the offensive and defensive system more balanced, and with outstanding away game capabilities, this game is expected to continue the suppression of Manchester United. Overall, Arsenal is more likely to score three points with its overall strength and tactical execution. The predicted score is: Manchester United 0-2 or 1-2 Arsenal.
