Arsenal vs. Manchester United picks and predictions
Prediction
Arsenal 2, Manchester United 1
Moneyline (ML)
BET ARSENAL (-113).
Arsenal has been almost flawless at home, and they have been rolling as of late. The Reds have scored multiple goals in every home league match outside of a 0-0 draw with Newcastle in which they had more expected goals than their opponent. Arsenal has only allowed a goal per game as well.
While United has surged up the table lately, they haven’t been great on the road, which was evident in their 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace. They have had fewer expected goals than their opponent in half of their road matches.
Ultimately, considering both teams in this position, back ARSENAL (-113).
Over/Under (O/U)
LEAN OVER 2.5 (-140).
Arsenal is averaging 2.33 goals per game and has been incredibly efficient at home this season. United is averaging 1.58 goals per game this season.
They have scored in every game throughout all competitions since Oct. 16. Goals should be scored in this battle, so back the OVER 2.5 (-140) for a partial unit due to the value on it.
