Benjamin Šeško (Manchester United)
The Slovenian striker arrives at Old Trafford with huge anticipation after his summer signing. Standing tall with pace and power, Šeško has already shown glimpses of a clinical finisher. His aerial presence and counter-attacking ability versus Arsenal’s high defensive line can be United’s greatest danger. Supporters have tipped him as the new No.9 to lead their revival.
Viktor Gyökeres (Arsenal)
Arsenal spent big to bring the Swedish forward in from Sporting Lisbon. A presser, physical, and direct runner, Gyökeres offers Arsenal a more physical presence up front. He enjoys battles with big defenders and will be eager to test his luck against Lisandro Martínez and United’s back three all afternoon. His duel with Šeško is the subplot fans will not want to miss.
Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United)
The United captain remains the cornerstone of the side. Innovative, loud, and indefatigable, Fernandes is tasked with sparking Arsenal’s midfield press. With his vision from deep and knack for arriving in the box, he is always a danger. If he can find an understanding with Šeško and Cunha, Arsenal’s rearguard could be in for a long evening.
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)
The Gunners’ golden boy continues to deliver season after season. Saka’s pace, dribbling, and ability to cut in on his left foot are Arsenal’s most reliable attacking channels. Up against United’s new-look wingbacks, he’ll be eager to demonstrate once more why he’s one of the Premier League’s most feared wide players. His duel with Diogo Dalot (or whoever Amorim opts for) can turn the game.
