Match Preview
Arsenal will be hoping to get back on track in the Premier League this weekend, as they have been held to draws in two of their previous four matches. That run of results leaves the Gunners sitting in third, as they now sit two points off the top of the standings. Arsenal’s most recent draw saw them battle back from 2-0 down against Chelsea last weekend.
The Gunners look very commanding favorites this weekend, as they are unbeaten in their last 36 matches against newly promoted opposition. Meanwhile, they are unbeaten in their last 18 matches against Sheffield United across all competitions since a 1-0 defeat in August 1971.

Sheffield United’s struggles at the start of the season have shown no signs of stopping, as they still sit bottom of the standings. The Blades are one of two sides that are yet to pick up a victory this term, and they have lost each of their previous five league matches, which includes a 2-1 loss against Man United last weekend.
The Blades have won just twice in 32 Premier League visits to London, with their most recent success coming against Crystal Palace in February 2020. Since that win, Sheffield United have lost each of their previous nine in the English capital. The Blades have also won just twice in 19 league meetings against the Gunners.
Arsenal vs Sheffield United Prediction
This appears to be a huge challenge for the Blades this weekend, as the Gunners have dominated the previous encounters between the sides. We expect Arsenal’s winning record to continue against their rivals, and it should be a routine success.
