Match Time & Date:
17 August 2025
16:30
Prediction: 0-2
Arsenal
All eyes will be on Old Trafford when Manchester United and Arsenal go head to head in the Premier League round 1. The Red Devils are eager to make amends for the unsuccessful 2024/2025 season and, no doubt, fans believe that new signings Benjamin Sesko, Bryan Mbeumo, and Matheus Cunha will help the team improve their game. Defender Lisandro Martinez is sidelined with a knee injury, while all Andre Onana, Noussair Mazraoui, and Joshua Zirkzee are major doubts.
The Gunners, on the other hand, did well to sign prolific Sporting CP striker Victor Gyokeres and we predict that the Sweden international will prove a handful for the opposition back-line. The likes of Noni Madueke, Martin Zubimendi, and Cristhian Mosquera have joined the Emirates Stadium outfit as well. Anyhow, Arsenal are more of a team than Manchester United and we predict that Mikel Arteta’s men are going to prove their worth on the field. Gabriel Jesus should be the only absentee in the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Bruno Fernandes):
Bruno Fernandes is a Portuguese footballer who used to play for Novara before joining Udinese in a co-ownership deal in the summer of 2013. The Portuguese midfielder scored his first goal for the club in a 3-3 draw with Napoli on 7 December, 2013.
Three years later he signed a deal with Sampdoria for a fee of €7 million. Fernandes moved to Sampdoria in order to replace Roberto who reinforced Villarreal. Soriano He played 33 games for the Zebrette in the 2015/2016 Serie A campaign, scoring three goals for the club, while providing four assists for his teammates.
Fernandes is a central midfielder, but he is capable of playing as a secondary striker as well. He was born in Maia, Portugal on 8 September, 1994 and he began his youth career at Infesta. Fernandes has seven caps for Portugal U21 team and he has played 4 matches for the U23 team.
Highlighted Team (Arsenal):
Arsenal are regarded as one of the best English teams. The Gunners have won 12 FA Cup trophies, 13 league titles and two League Cups, but they have yet to lift the Champions League trophy. Arsene Wenger’s team were on the verge of beating Barcelona in the Champions League final back in 2006, but they eventually failed to win the prestigious title.
Arsenal used to play their homes at Highbury, but in 2006 they moved to the Emirates Stadium. The capacity of the stadium is 60,260. The Gunners won their last Premier League trophy back in 2004, with the capital club going through the season without a single loss. The likes of Thierry Henry, Denis Bergkamp and Robert Pires were part of the team back then, but Arsenal have not won the league trophy ever since.
Arsenal was founded by Woolwich munitions workers as Dial Square back in 1886. It is well known that Tottenham Hotspur are Arsenal’s fiercest rivals and there have always been fireworks when the two local rivals meet in the North London derby.
