Manchester United
Manchester United approach the game following an inconsistent pre-season and recent competitive outings. Manager Ruben Amorim has introduced new players to the squad, aiming to make a positive impact in their home opener. However, injuries pose challenges, with goalkeeper Andre Onana and striker Joshua Zirkzee out. Key defender Lisandro Martinez is ruled out until late October due to a serious knee injury, and full-back Noussair Mazraoui is also not part of the squad after picking up a minor injury.
Arsenal
Arsenal, who have secured second place in the Premier League for three consecutive seasons, enter the match with confidence, boasting a strong attack and disciplined tactics. They remain strong contenders for the title. The Gunners have minimal injury concerns, though striker Gabriel Jesus is absent as he recovers from a knee issue. Forward Leandro Trossard is also questionable after a slight groin injury sustained during a pre-season match against Tottenham Hotspur, but manager Mikel Arteta is hopeful he will be available for selection on Sunday.
