A distant chance to try in the Premier League on Sunday

Arsenal and Manchester United have had very different seasons in 2023-24.

While Arsenal have been one of the most impressive and consistent clubs in the world this campaign, Manchester United have been all over the map and don’t seem to have any direction.

But for 90 minutes on Sunday, none of that will matter as United look to spoil Arsenal’s title race.

Manchester United vs. Arsenal odds

Sometimes a number gets to a point where you have to play it.

This is what is happening here.

Even though Arsenal are a much better team and have everything to play for in this match, this prize is about to get out of hand.

Manchester United have been an absolute disaster this season and it will almost certainly cost manager Erik ten Hag his job, but the Red Devils have already shown up in a few important places this season.

Manchester United were very unlikely to get a result against Liverpool twice in recent months, but the Red Devils defied the odds and secured a 2-2 draw and a 4-3 victory against the Reds .

United also held Liverpool scoreless in a goalless draw just before Christmas.

Things have been a lot uglier for United recently, and the Red Devils are coming off an embarrassing 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace, but this result shouldn’t really shock anyone.

This is exactly how the season has gone for this team. One week they are playing well against Liverpool and the next week they are being played off the field by a team fighting relegation.

There are some injury concerns for United with Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford questionable, but there is still enough attacking talent in this team with Alejandro Garnacho, Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount to ask some questions about a formidable Arsenal defense.

So while United isn’t likely to win this game, having a team with this much talent at +600 (and that number should go up by kickoff) at home is worth spreading.

The bet: Manchester United +600 (FanDuel)
