Ahead of the much-awaited English Premier League clash pitting Manchester United United and Arsenal at Old Trafford, there has been some early team news from both teams. It has been reported that Arsenal teenager Bukayo Saka will start on the left-wing for Unai Emery’s side.
The Arsenal academy graduate started for Arsenal in their Europa League win over Frankfurt two weeks ago and scored a goal while setting up to two other in a comfortable 3-0 win.

Saka was then started in Arsenal’s last Premier League match against Aston Villa but was subbed off at half time with the Gunners a goal down and a man down following Maitland Niles sending off in the first half.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are expected to have the duo of Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford is expected to be fit enough to play. Rashford was injured in the loss to Westham a week ago while Pogba had a sprained ankle sustained in training. The World Cup winner has been dimmed fit enough to start.
However, there are fears that impressive right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka could miss out. He has been Manchester United’s best player since making his summer move from fellow English side Crystal Palace.
