Manchester United V Arsenal Predictions & Betting Odds

Manchester United v Arsenal Betting Tips – Premier League 29th April 4.30pm

Arsene Wenger is leaving Arsenal at the end of the season and then and he’d probably love to go out with a bang by taking a win at Old Trafford against his old foe Jose Mourinho. However, Arsenal’s away form is pretty shoddy this season. Manchester United are well on course for a second place finish this season and with an FA Cup final to come too, it’s been a decent return from them on the domestic front.

Manchester United News and Form

After their FA Cup success against Tottenham on the weekend, Manchester United get back to Premier League business on Sunday in facing up to Arsenal. The Red Devils have produced a good W13 D2 L2 record at home this season in the top flight. Their recent shock home defeat against West Brom snapped a five-match home winning streak that they were running along on. That was such an odd result for United but they have recovered well since then in league and cup. They should be able to lock in second place in the league from here and three points would push them a little closer to that.

United have averaged over two goals per home game this term and their defence has been rock solid, only having conceded eight times at Old Trafford. You would have to consider Arsenal’s poor form on the road too and Manchester United to win to nil is at 6/4 odds with bet365* (betting odds taken on April 24th, 2018 at 1:56 a.m.) looks a decent proposition. Man Utd have conceded just three second-half goals at home this season, taking a clean sheet in 65% of fixtures at Old Trafford. Romelu Lukaku is the 10/3 first goalscorer favourite* (betting odds taken on April 24th, 2018 at 1:56 a.m.) and of course this will pit former Arsenal man Alexis Sanchez against his former club.

Arsenal News and Form

Arsenal have produced some poor form this season on the road in the Premier League. They have gone W3 D4 L9 only on their travels and they have lost their last five on the road. It’s not been anywhere near good enough by their standards, and overall they are winless in their last six away from the Emirates. In their four matches against current top five sides away from home this season, Arsenal are D1 L3. The Gunners have been drawing at half time in ten of their away games and a half-time draw at bet365 may appeal. That’s not a bad shout considering that Manchester United tend to look a bit conservative in the first half of games. There has been no clean sheet for Arsenal in any of their last seven away games and they have conceded an average of 1.6 goals per away game in total. 65% of the goals that Arsenal have produced away from home this season have been in the second half of matches. 65% of their away goals conceded have been after the break as well. In the bet365 correct score market a Man Utd 2-0 and a 1-0 are both at 7/1 odds* (betting odds taken on April 24th, 2018 at 1:56 a.m.). After a difficult season, Alexandre Lacazaette has scored in three of Arsenal’s last four games.

Manchester United v Arsenal Head to Head

Manchester United produced a great 3-1 away win at Arsenal when the two met back in December. Things though are even between the two clubs in their last five league meetings with two wins each and a draw. United are on a long stretch of 10 unbeaten home league games against the Gunners. Two of the last three at Old Trafford have ended in a 1-1 draw. Only one of the last four league games between the two clubs at Old Trafford have gone over 2.5 goals.
