Man United vs Arsenal prediction and odds: Gabriel Martinelli tipped to frustrate Erik ten Hag's side at Old Trafford

Arsenal will be keen to avoid a banana-skin situation when they make the trip to Old Trafford to face a Manchester United who have recently appeared to have clicked under new boss Erik ten Hag. Mikel Arteta's side are the only team left with a 100% win record while United have won three on the bounce.

The Gunners are 13/8 with Betway while United are the slight favourites with 8/5 while a draw is 5/2 for the outing at Old Trafford. Arsenal have won four of their last eight Premier League meetings against the Red Devil's losing just once which happened in their last trip to Old Trafford the previous season.

The north London club will be over the moon with their perfect start after getting five from their opening five against Crystal Palace, Leicester City, Bournemouth, Fulham and Aston Villa in August. Notable performances against Fulham too show a huge improvement in grinding out results when the momentum of the match was completely against them - a mentality we have not seen at the Emirates Stadium in a very long time.

The same can be said over at Manchester United, albeit a little bit later than expected. Back-to-back defeats against Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford definitely served as a reminder for Erik ten Hag as to what to expect in the Premier League but his side seem to have adapted quickly - especially with performances from the likes of Jadon Sancho too - with wins against Liverpool, Southampton and Leicester City.

Players to watch

Both Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus have been fantastic for Arsenal this season with the new look attack linking up brilliantly so far. The Gunners have scored 13 goals - third highest in the league - with six coming from the Brazilian duo. Both players have picked up three goals each along with captain Martin Odegaard too. With 50% shot accuracy and a 21% goal conversion too, it is definitely worth to consider Martinelli.

H2H

This will be the 237th meeting between the two sides with Arsenal picking up 85 wins, 53 draws and 98 defeats against Man United. In the league, it will be 207th meeting - 61st in the Premier League - with the Gunners picking up 73 wins, 49 draws and 84 defeats.
