How to watch Arsenal vs Manchester United for free plus starting XIs and talkSPORT coverage for Premier League clash

Arsenal will hope to cut the deficit to Premier League leaders Liverpool when they host Manchester United this evening.

The Gunners beat London rivals West Ham at the weekend in a thrilling clash that saw all seven goals in their 5-2 win come in the first half.

A dominant victory meant Mikel Arteta’s side remained in second place, albeit on alphabetical order, and nine points behind Liverpool. 

That is a big gap to close down even at this early stage of the season but another three points against Man United would give them hope. 

Ruben Amorim will be hopeful of picking up his second win as manager though, in what is going to be his toughest task as Red Devils boss so far. 

A draw at Ipswich was followed by a convincing win of Everton on Sunday to mark a great start to his time in Manchester.

Arsenal vs Man United: Gunning for a record

Arsenal can make some club history at the Emirates on Wednesday. 

The Gunners have won their last three Premier League games against Man United. 

Should they win again, it will be the first time ever they have beaten their rivals in four consecutive league fixtures.

And there is a high likelihood that they achieve it too, as United have lost seven of their last nine trips to the red side of North London. 

The Red Devils have also lost their last three away meetings against Arsenal, not winning in any of their last six such clashes. 

The last three results of this fixture are 3-1, 3-2 and 3-1 to the hosts, so Amorim will want to put an end to the streak of conceding so many goals.

They’ve won 10 and lost six of their 20 meetings with Manchester United at the ground (D4), only losing more against Manchester City (9) and Chelsea (7).Manchester United have won just two of their last 18 Premier League away games against London sides (D5 L11), with both of those victories coming against Fulham. The Red Devils had been unbeaten in 13 visits to the capital before this (W8 D5).

Arsenal vs Man United: What has been said? 

Rashford now has three goals in two games under Amorim and he looks like he could be getting back to his best. 

After a double against Everton, the 27-year-old praised his new manager but played down his upturn in form after a tough year. 

And despite praising him, Amorim also didn’t want to to dwell on his forward’s performance too much and asked for more. 

The Man United boss said on Sunday: "He can do so much, so he has to continue to improve, he has the ability to do it, he already proved that.

"But he can play so much better, as can the other guys.

"It was a good performance, [but] tomorrow he has to recover and start thinking about Arsenal."
