Arsenal vs Man United Predictions: 25.01.2026 - Premier League Betting Tips

Arsenal vs Man United

League leaders Arsenal host Man United on Sunday afternoon hoping to return to winning ways. After failing to beat Nottingham Forest on their travels, Arsenal return to the Emirates where they have won four of their last five Premier League matches. But can Michael Carrick spoil the party?

Our Premier League expert Nathan Joyes analyses the action and puts forward his best bet in what looks to be an intriguing affair.

Arsenal formidable at the Emirates

Arsenal bounced back in style against Inter Milan midweek in the Champions League and their 0-0 with Nottingham Forest has since been forgotten.

Mikel Arteta's side haven't drawn consecutive Premier League matches all season, and with a swift return to the Emirates, the Gunners have an opportunity to make sure that trend doesn't start now.

Gabriel Jesus was the star of the show against Inter with two first half strikes to his name, while Viktor Gyokeres put the cherry on top in the second half which no doubt boosted his confidence too.

Since drawing with Man City back in September, Arsenal have won 11 of their 13 home matches, with eight of those coming by a two goal margin. Liverpool recently came and held Arteta's side - but no doubt the Spaniard learned plenty from that match.

New manager bounce worked a treat

Man United pulled the plug on Ruben Amorim and turned to Michael Carrick to salvage their season. His first match couldn't have been more difficult on paper but a confident 2-0 win over Man City will certainly have excited fans.

That was their first win since Boxing Day and although that result would have put a spring in their step, Man United haven't won away since beating Wolves 4-1 on the 8th December.

A boost for Carrick was the return of Bryan Mbeumo who opened the scoring against their arch rivals, as well as Amad Diallo - who saw his first half goal ruled out.

With players back from AFCON and a new manager reviving the likes of Kobbie Mainoo, Man United will fancy themselves - even at the Emirates.

Arsenal vs Man United H2H

Arsenal won the reverse fixture earlier in the season 1-0 at Old Trafford, stretching their unbeaten run to seven against their next opponents. It's also worth mentioning that Man United haven't won at the Emirates since 2019 in the FA Cup and 2017 in the Premier League.

Our Arsenal vs Man United betting tip

Arsenal returned to winning ways in the Champions League but now face a new Man United side that will be hoping to disrupt their rhythm once more. But can the Red Devils actually cause an upset in North London?

Nathan Joyes has taken a look at the Premier League odds for this match and puts his best bet forward.

Arsenal to prove too strong

Arsenal (3/5 with Betfred) looked as good as ever at the San Siro on Tuesday night and they will be desperate to put on a confident display at the Emirates for the first time in 2026.

Arteta's side have been on the road for their last four fixtures and have won three of those - only falling short against Forest where their goalkeeper - Mat Selz - picked up the man of the match award, which tells you everything you need to know.

Man United (5/1 with Betano) admittedly, looked very good against Man City. But this is a side that has only won twice in 2026 - and were just hammered 3-1 against Bodo/Glimt in the Champions League.

Something is clearly amiss with Man City - and perhaps Man United's victory wasn't as strong as some are making out. Facing Arsenal in their own back yard is the ultimate test this season - and Carrick's men may fall short.

Jesus looked dangerous midweek - and against Forest - and combining Arsenal to win alongside the Brazilian having just one shot on target creates an odds-against price which catches the eye.

TIP: Arsenal to win and Gabriel Jesus 1+ shot on target at 13/10 with BetMGM.
