Arsenalhead to struggling Manchester United on Sunday afternoon as they look to return to winning ways in the Premier League.

The Gunners enjoyed their last outing as they beat PSV 7-1 in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 last time out with six different players getting on the scoresheet. It wasn't as successful for Mikel Arteta's side in their latest league game however, as they were held to a 0-0 draw by a resilient Nottingham Forest side.

As Arsenal look to secure back-to-back victories at Old Trafford for the first time in 46 years, there are four key talking points ahead of their matchup with Manchester United.

Arsenal certainly enjoyed themselves in Eindhoven as they put seven past an error-prone PSV to show that their clinical touch remains despite recent struggles in front of goal. Faced against a poor Man United side, they can certainly continue their prolific scoring on Sunday.

The record Premier League champions' backline has looked shaky at times this season, having conceded 39 goals with ten of those coming from their own errors.

As the Gunners aim to continue their prolific scoring, United's shoddy defence looks to be an ideal force to target. The hosts will make it difficult for Arteta's side but given United's struggled this season, Arsenal will no doubt have good chances to score.
