Arsenal Face Man Utd Test As Nunez Targets Liverpool Start

Manchester United aims to overcome their away-game struggles as they face Arsenal this Sunday, while Liverpool clashes with free-scoring Aston Villa.

Luton, newly promoted, plays their first home match against high-flying West Ham, and Everton seeks their first goal from the bottom of the table.

Key points to consider for the upcoming weekend’s football action:

United’s Away-Day Woes: Last season, Arsenal’s thrilling 3-2 victory over Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium highlighted United’s struggles away from home.

They lost all six matches against top-seven teams, conceding an average of 3.66 goals per away match. An injury crisis has further complicated their task against Arsenal.

Nunez’s Claim at Liverpool: Darwin Nunez, who had a challenging debut season for Liverpool, is looking to secure a starting spot. He impressed with two late goals in Liverpool’s last match against Newcastle, providing competition for key attacking roles.

Luton’s Home Comforts: Luton, newly returned to the Premier League after three decades, seeks its first points of the season.

Their home game against Burnley was postponed due to ground upgrades, and they host West Ham in hopes of a better result.
