You Bet | United should take full points off the Gunners
Tottenham rate banker material at home to Wigan and Chelsea look too strong for Swansea
Manchester United v Arsenal is not the crucial fixture it once was, but it's still the glamour match of the weekend in the English Premier League.
Arsenal are already six points behind United and their promising start - clean sheets in their first three league games, plus a win at Liverpool and a draw at Manchester City - has ebbed away in recent weeks. They lost without scoring against Norwich and Schalke before scraping a 1-0 home win over 10-man QPR last weekend and considerable improvement is needed tonight.
United are suspect in defence but their attack is firing on all cylinders and they have won their last five in the Premier League and Champions League, with 15 goals scored. In fact, United have scored at least two goals in 10 of their 12 games in those two competitions this season.
That does not bode well for Arsenal, who have lost seven out of 10 in 2012 when their opponents have scored more than once. Arsenal's clean sheets this season have all been against teams in the bottom half of the table and it seems unlikely they will shut out United, who rarely fail to score at Old Trafford.
United have an excellent recent record against Arsenal and look one of the best bets of the weekend.
Tottenham rate banker material at home to Wigan and Chelsea look too strong for Swansea, but the other short-odds big names - Manchester City and Liverpool - do not make much appeal.
