Arsenal vs. Man United Prediction
Amorim has enjoyed an excellent start to life at Old Trafford. However, defensive issues were still evident in their 4-0 win over Everton on Sunday.
It is unlikely that they will get away with handing Arsenal as many clear cut chances, meaning that the preference is for the Gunners to come out on top in a high-scoring affair.
