It was a miserable campaign for United last season as they finished in 15th place and lost in the Europa League final to Tottenham. However, manager Ruben Amorim has been working his players hard in pre-season and has brought in a brand new front line in Benjamin Sesko, Bryan and Matheus Cunha. That should guarantee goals but there are still plenty of question marks over the midfield, defence and goalkeeper.

After another second-place finish in the Premier League, Mikel Arteta has addressed the issues in the squad and hopes to launch a legitimate title challenge. Martín Zubimendi will help to dictate play in midfield and Noni Madueke offers pace and skill on the wing. But it is the arrival of Viktor Gyökeres that is exciting the fans the most, as it seems the Gunners have finally found a clinical centre forward.

As for the early team news, United are expected to be without Noussair Mazraoui, Andre Onana and Lisandro Martinez, while only Gabriel Jesus and Leandro Trossard are expected to be unfit for the visitors.
