Key factors

What will decide this match?

Home advantage first, then expected goals and the factor with the most influence on this match.

  1. Home advantage

    Edge: Even

    Home support is worth about a fifth of a goal to Man Utd. That narrows the gap but does not cancel Arsenal's extra quality.

  2. Expected goals

    Edge: Goals

    2.9 expected goals is above the league average, and over 2.5 goals lands 55% of the time in our simulations.

  3. Quality gap

    Edge: Arsenal

    Arsenal rate clearly higher and the draw is only 24%. If they score first, the match should go their way.

Team set-up

How will the two teams line up?

Confirmed line-ups are published about an hour before kick-off.

Home

Manchester United

Man Utd are organised and hard to break down, and they usually get results at Old Trafford by winning the midfield.

Away

Arsenal

Arsenal are built to dominate the ball. They should have most of the possession on their trip to Old Trafford and keep Man Utd pinned in their own half for long spells.

Risk radar

What could change the prediction?

The news that would move our numbers before kick-off.

  • If Arsenal name a weakened XI

    Rotation or a missing key player would cut several points from their win chance. Line-ups are out an hour before kick-off.

  • If Man Utd score first

    The favourite has to chase the game, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.

  • If a red card comes in the first hour

    Going down to ten men changes the expected-goals picture completely, whichever side it hits.
