Arsenal v Manchester United: match preview

This article is more than 6 years old

Arsène Wenger will be disappointed to be without the services of Alexandre Lacazette but with Mesut Özil’s magical range of passing the manager can at least be confident the striker’s replacement should have chances. José Mourinho will want more from Romelu Lukaku but the Belgian’s struggles may continue. Wenger’s side have been growing stronger defensively and in doing so have kept three successive clean sheets.
