Arsenal and Manchester United are set to face each other in a highly anticipated FA Cup third-round match at the Emirates Stadium. The game is scheduled for today, with kick-off at 3:00 PM local time.
Team News:
Arsenal: The Gunners will be without Bukayo Saka due to injury. In their recent matches, Arsenal has shown strong form, though they suffered a setback with a loss to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.
Manchester United: Manager Ruben Amorim has confirmed that backup goalkeeper Altay Bayindir will start, giving regular keeper Andre Onana a rest. Bayindir's limited appearances this season have raised concerns among fans, especially after a notable error in a previous cup match against Tottenham.
Predicted Lineups:
Arsenal: Raya; Timber, Gabriel, White, Zinchenko; Rice, Ødegaard, Havertz; Martinelli, Jesus, Trossard.
Manchester United: Bayindir; Dalot, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; Casemiro, Fernandes, Mount; Rashford, Højlund, Garnacho.
Match Prediction:
Given Arsenal's recent form and home advantage, they are considered favorites for this encounter. However, Manchester United's potential lineup changes and the unpredictability of cup matches suggest it could be a closely contested game. A narrow victory for Arsenal is anticipated by some analysts.
Broadcast Information:
The match will be broadcast live on BBC One in Ireland, with coverage starting at 2:30 PM and kick-off at 3:00 PM. Unfortunately, there is no streaming option available for viewers in the Republic of Ireland.
This fixture not only rekindles a historic rivalry but also presents both teams with an opportunity to make a significant statement in their pursuit of silverware this season.
