Expert soccer predictions and tips

Arsenal hosts Manchester United at the Emirates in a thrilling clash from the FA Cup’s third round. These two giants will face each other in the capital, but only one will progress in the competition. Stay with us for our Expert soccer predictions and tips.

For Arsenal this game comes just five days after the disappointing 0-2 loss against Newcastle in the Carabao Cup 1/2-finals. Now the manager Mikel Arteta has to analyze this performance and check what went wrong against the Magpies.

Obviously, Arteta could be making changes in the line-up against United. Players like Mikel Merino and Gabriel Jesus could return among the starting eleven. Jesus played as a substitute against Newcastle while Merino didn’t play at all. Oleksandr Zinchenko could return in the team as well.

For Arsenal it will be important to return their confidence. The Gunners are without a win in their last two matches – against Brighton & Hove Albion and Newcastle. Winning the FA Cup is one of their goals this season – it’s an important trophy and they are usually very successful in the competition.

Manchester United are struggling even after the sacking of Eric ten Hag and the appointment of Ruben Amorim. At this moment the Red Devils are without a win in their last five games in all competitions. In these five matches United suffered four losses. The only exception was the 2-2 draw against Liverpool at the Anfield last week.

The mentality Manchester United showed against Liverpool is exactly what they need right now. Amorim’s boys showed some good spirit and they could have won as well. That’s exactly how they have to perform until the end of the season.

That’s the Expert soccer predictions and tips for the FA Cup fixture between Arsenal and Manchester United. Let’s see which one of these two teams will progress in the competition!
