Manchester United team news

Manchester United come into this fixture after a mixed pre-season and recent competitive performances. The squad has seen some new faces and changes under manager Ruben Amorim, who will be looking to start the campaign positively at home.

Injury doubts hover over a few players, including Andre Onana and Joshua Zirkzee, while key defender Lisandro Martinez remains sidelined until late October due to a cruciate ligament injury.

Noussair Mazraoui is also doubtful with a recent knock.

Arsenal team news

Arsenal have been on an upward trajectory, finishing second in the league for the past three seasons. They bring a squad known for attacking flair and tactical discipline, poised to challenge for the title again.

The visitors begin their campaign with only a couple of injury worries. The standout omission is Gabriel Jesus, who remains sidelined as he continues his recovery from the knee injury.

Leandro Trossard is the only other doubt, after sustaining a minor groin strain in the Gunners’ pre-season fixture against Tottenham Hotspur. However, Mikel Arteta is optimistic the forward will be fit and ready for selection by Sunday.
