Man United will welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford on the evening of Sunday March 9, with the Red Devils desperate for a positive result against a big name after what has been a terrible campaign.
The Red Devils have enough daylight between themselves and the relegation zone not to fear the dreaded drop, but even a lowly top-half finish seems beyond them.
As for Arsenal, they are looking to put pressure on Liverpool in the title race and need to claim three points from their trip to the ‘Theatre of Dreams’. “Every game has a different context,” said Gunners manager Mikel Arteta. “We know the difficulty and the history when you look at what we’ve done over there [at Old Trafford], so we’re going to have to be at our best to earn the right to win the game.”
The weekend’s action gets going early on Saturday afternoon with a potential thriller between Nottingham Forest and Manchester City. The former have enjoyed an amazing campaign, while the champions have struggled to produce their best form – though the promising form of Egyptian forward Omar Marmoush has been a notable silver lining.
As a team firmly in line to bag the 2024/25 Premier League crown, Egyptian great Mohamed Salah will once again lead the charge when the Reds face Southampton at Anfield on Saturday.
The Merseyside giants have been galvanised by a rampant Salah this season, who has managed to record a mammoth 25 goals and 17 assists in 28 Premier League games played so far.
With Salah tipped to win major individual accolades, Liverpool boss Arne Slot believes that winning the Premier League will boost the 32-year-old’s chances of bagging the 2025 Ballon d’Or award.
Sunday, aside from the Man United v Arsenal clash, will bring a battle between Chelsea and Leicester City at Stamford Bridge, as well as Bournemouth heading to Tottenham Hotspur, while
Monday night closes out the round with West Ham United hosting Newcastle United – where Hammers manager Graham Potter will be under pressure to bring some cheer to the club’s supporters.
“Sometimes you have to say, look, we didn’t do what we wanted to do and it’s a collective. It’s not just the players, its myself and everybody involved,” said Potter.
