25. Arsenal should be in front in this one.
As Man Utd fail to deal with a corner, Zinchenko has a chance to shoot but his effort is blocked.
Partey then has a glaring chance from the penalty spot but sends it wide of the target.

23. It has been quite an even game so far.
The pair are looking comfortable in possession but are not doing anything with it.
Arteta needs some more invention from his team.

You won't see any of this game in a showreel for Sky Sports adverts.

19. Partey switches play out to Saka.
The Arsenal winger ends up in a heap on the floor as he tries to acrobatically take the pass out of the air.
That is as close as we have got to action in this game.

17. Fernandes is having to chip in with defensive duties right now.
The problem for the visitors is that they need him up the other end of the pitch.
He is the most likely person in this Red Devils side to be able to unlock this Arsenal defence.

15. Neither side is pressing when not in possession.
As a result, this often seems like an exhibition match, the only difference is that no charities are benefiting.
The fans certainly aren't from watching this.

View from SunSport's Jordan Davies at The Emirates
ARSENAL'S PA announcer at the Emirates is trying something new this season when listing off the home team.
He calls out the first name, waiting for the fans to shout back the surname.
However, it has not quite caught on just yet, so for now it is just the announcer over the microphone shouting "KAI" or "JURRIEN" with little to no response.
Let's hope there is more cohesion on the pitch!

13. You could argue this is the first real test for Amorim's United.
If they feel they can go toe-to-toe with the teams competing for the Champions League spots, this is a game they need to look to win.
Zinchenko whips a cross into the box but no Arsenal player is attacking the penalty area.

11. There seems to no hunger from Man Utd to go forward.
Whenever they receive the ball, they just seem so passive.
Passing it around aimlessly with no ambition to create something in the final third.

9. Neither keeper has been called into action yet.
It certainly has not been the action-packed game we were hoping for so far.
A goal could be needed to open this match up.

7. Odegaard robs Fernandes of the ball in the middle.
He strides forward before feeding out wide to Martinelli.
They cannot penetrate the visitors' defence and have to start all over again from the back.

5. It will take some time for Amorim to put his stamp on this squad.
They may be playing to his tactics but not much is looking different from ten Hag's tenure.
Man Utd have offered very little as an attacking threat so far.

3. Raya is looking to get involved in the passing game for The Gunners, he has spent more time outside his box than in it so far.
Havertz and Odegaard are flying into the challenges on the visitors.
Not sure Arteta will love seeing that, his Norwegian midfielder does not need to pick up another injury.

1. It is a sketchy start to the game in North London.
Both sides are trying to get their passing game together.
Man Utd are not looking to press high up the pitch, allowing the Arsenal defence time on the ball.

A few cheers have gone around the Emirates and we haven't even kicked off yet. That is because as is stands, Liverpool are LOSING.
Surely the players would have been able to glance at the scores before they entered the pitch, and the Gunners lot will be even more motivated tonight.
Another Mikel Arteta pre-match motivational video on the big screens here is also being blared out to gee up this North London crowd.
If results continue to go their way, we could look back in May at this mid-week clash being a turning point in the title race.

Looking to kickstart career
Since his move from Chelsea to Man Utd, it has not gone according to plan for Mason Mount.
Injuries have blighted his start to life at Old Trafford, back in the capital this evening, he will be looking to put in a display.
If he wants to impress Ruben Amorim this is the game to do it in.

Arteta's squad depth tested
Mikel Arteta has invested heavily in this squad during his time here.
Spending in excess of £650m since taking over, that will be severely tested during this festive period.
Particularly with this game tonight, The Gunners defence is missing a few key players for the visit of Man Utd.

Emirates ready for big clash
Over the Premier League years, this has always been a big game.
Given both clubs fall from grace, this game no longer decides titles.
Not that either sets of fans will be looking at it that way this evening.

Busy schedule will mix up the table
This time of year, the fixtures come thick and fast.
December can be a make or break time for anyone’s season.
Arteta needs to ensure his side are focussed if they have any chance of reducing that nine-point gap.

Ruben looking to continue honeymoon period
After a draw and win in his first two Premier League games in charge, Red Devils’ fans are expecting the good times to be back at Old Trafford.
Such is the dire situation of their league position post-Ten Hag, Man Utd cannot afford to drop any more points if they have eyes on the top four.
It would be a big statement if they were to take all points at The Emirates.
