Arsenal are back in action just 4 days after beating Fulham at the Emirates stadium. The Gunners are in fine form winning 4 out of 4 and they remain as the only Premier League side to get maximum points this season. It was a hard fought victory that gave the Gunners the victory on Saturday and the confidence to continue winning should be high within the group.

Arsenal are facing Manchester United away at Old Trafford just 3 days later and Mikel Arteta will probably rotate his squad against Villa. A couple of injuries could also hand some players their first start of the season. Below is the Predicted Lineup:

GK:
Ramsdale was superb against Fulham keeping his team in the game. Although Arteta will rotate, this is one position he will not change.

DF:
Arteta might keep the same back 4 that started against Fulham but some players could benefit from a rest so that they can have a fresh game against Manchester United. Although Zinchenko might make the bench, I’m predicting that he will be rested for this game with the United game in mind. That means Kieran Tierney will get his second start of the season. Takehiro Tomiyasu is fit again he will should get a chance to play at right back and rest Ben White. Gabriel and Saliba have been brilliant together and I dont see Arteta breaking up their partnership.

MF:
Sambi Lokonga remain the only defensive minded midfielder to play the DM role with both Partey and Elneny out injured. Xhaka and Odegaard should complete the midfield. There’s also a big chance for Fabio Vieira to get his debut from the bench.

FW:
With the United game in mind Arteta might also use the opportunity to rest Saka and Martinelli. The duo could feature from the bench and impact the game. This means Nketiah and Smith Rowe will get their first starts of the season with Gabriel Jesus completing the front 3.
