Manchester United welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford on Sunday in a crucial Premier League clash. The Red Devils seek consistency, while the Gunners must win to keep their title hopes alive.
Arsenal arrive in high spirits after a stunning 7-1 victory over PSV in the Champions League, whereas United, languishing in 14th place, grinded out a 1-1 draw against Sociedad in the Europa League.
🔴Man United Struggle for Stability | Home Win = 5.48💵
Manchester United’s campaign has been plagued by inconsistency, winning just one of their last four league games. Despite back-to-back comeback results, their performances remain erratic.

🔴️Arsenal Must Win to Stay in the Title Race | Away Win = 1.79💵
Arsenal sit second in the table but are winless in their last two Premier League matches, failing to score in both. However, their dominant Champions League display in midweek shows they remain a dangerous side.
Mikel Arteta’s team have won their last three league encounters with United and will look to continue that trend to keep pace with Liverpool at the top of the table in the off chance that Slot’s side drops more points.
🔑️Key Players & Team News📰:
United could be without up to nine first-team players, including Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, and Kobbie Mainoo. Amorim could give Academy play Chido Obi a starting berth with the second leg Europa league game against Sociedad in mind.

Real Madrid aim to return to winning ways in La Liga when they host Rayo Vallecano at Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday afternoon in a game considered by many as a mini Madrid derby and for good reason given how tough it's been with the last three fixtures ending in draws like the main Madrid derby.

Chelsea, fresh from back-to-back victories with a 2-1 win over Copenhagen in Europe, will aim to extend their winning streak when they host Leicester City at Stamford Bridge on Sunday in the English Premier League.
Enzo Maresca’s side strengthened their top-four hopes with a huge win over bottom-placed Southampton last week to keep pressure on Man City, who currently occupy 4th place in the league, and they would hope they continue.
🔵Chelsea Aim to Maintain Home Dominance | Home Win = 1.24💵
Chelsea have been formidable at Stamford Bridge, losing just one of their last 18 home matches in all competitions. The Blues have also netted at least two goals in 14 of those encounters.
With key players returning after missing the Conference league game, Maresca’s men will look to capitalize on Leicester’s poor form. Chelsea have won five of their last six meetings against the Foxes, underlining their superiority.
🦊Leicester Desperate for Points to Avoid Relegation | Away Win = 12.89💵
Leicester have lost 11 of their last 12 league matches and are currently enduring a four-game losing streak without scoring. Their attacking struggles have been evident, boasting the lowest xG in the division.
Ruud van Nistelrooy's side have secured just one away win in their last 11 league visits to Stamford Bridge, and their defensive frailties remain a concern against Chelsea’s potent attack.
🔑Key Players & Team News📰:
Chelsea will be without Trevoh Chalobah, Noni Madueke, Nicolas Jackson, and Benoît Badiashile. Romeo Lavia could feature from the bench, while Cole Palmer will be looking to end his recent goal drought.
Leicester are missing Abdul Fatawu, who is out long-term with an ACL injury, while Ricardo Pereira and Harry Souttar are sidelined. Odsonne Édouard remains doubtful. Jamie Vardy and Jordan Ayew are expected to lead the attack with Wilfred Ndidi providing midfield stability.
🔢Match Stats & Betting Odds | Draw = 7.97💵
⚽ Chelsea have won five (5) of their last six meetings with Leicester and remain dominant at home. | Specials Market: Home & Over 3.5 = 2.05
⚽ Leicester have scored in all their last 5 meetings with Chelsea including the last time they avoided a defeat at Stamford Bridge against the Blues in 2022 (1-1). | Specials Market: Over 2.5 & Yes = 2.00
⚽ The last three meetings between these teams at Stamford Bridge have produced over 5.5 goals. | Main Market: Over 2.5 = 1.94
With Chelsea in strong form at home and Leicester struggling for survival, this fixture favors the hosts, but the Foxes will hope to defy the odds in their bid to escape the drop.
