Arsenal vs Manchester United FA Cup Prediction Match Details
The FA Cup will continue its action on Sunday at the Emirates Stadium as Manchester United are set to travel to London to face Arsenal in the third-round fixtures. Can Ruben Amorim’s men get revenge for their league defeat, or will the Gunners easily pass them to advance to the next tournament round?
Arsenal Preview & Form
Arsenal will come into the third round of the FA Cup on the back of a disappointing 2-0 loss to Newcastle United during the midweek Carabao Cup semifinal first round at the Emirates Stadium. The result now leaves Mikel Arteta’s men winless in the last two successive matches, mounting more pressure on the Spaniard tacticians to avoid an early exit from the FA Cup. However, they will feel confident, having already beaten Manchester United 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium in the first half of the Premier League this season and having won each of their last three encounters with Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium.
Manchester United Preview & Form
Ruben Amorim’s struggles continue, as since the appointment of the Portuguese tactician, the Red Devils have managed just four victories in their 12 matches across all competitions. United’s are currently winless in their last five consecutive games across all competitions, but an outstanding performance in their first game of 2025 will boost their confidence going to Emirates. The Red Devils ended their four-match losing run with a 2-2 draw against Liverpool at Anfield in a game they outclassed the inform Merseyside. One major issue for United in recent games has been their defense, conceding at least two goals in each of their last five matches since beating Manchester City in the derby match. Ruben Amorim will now hope to avoid an exit from domestic competitions, having witnessed a 4-3 defeat in the quarterfinal of the Carabao Cup against Tottenham in December.
