Manchester United vs Arsenal: 3 reasons why Gunners could defeat Red Devils | Premier League 2019/20

#2 Solskjaer has injury troubles

Manchester United are hit with multiple injuries. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be without Paul Pogba, Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, and Luke Shaw for this contest. It means that the Norwegian will be forced to deploy a younger team on paper in the hopes of getting something out of the game.

Arsenal, on the other hand, will be without their striker, Alexandre Lacazette. The Frenchman will sit out until this month’s end, but some of his teammates have recovered. Hector Bellerin and Kieran Tierney are unlikely to start, but they will warm the bench.

Since the Red Devils have none of their experienced forwards in their starting lineup, it will be tough for them to find the back of the net. Young Mason Greenwood has been on a scoring spree by finding the back of the net against Astana and Rochdale. However, it remains to be seen if the teenager would be able to cope up with the physicality of David Luiz and Sokratis.

Since Arsenal defence is the weakest of all their department, the absence of Martial and Rashford will come as a huge boost. However, they have to work in the forward line and break down their opponents.
