London: So, here we are, right before a big match between Manchester United and Arsenal. It’s a classic FA Cup showdown, and the stakes are high. United hasn’t won at the Emirates in ages, and Arsenal has been on a roll lately.
Arsenal is unbeaten in their last seven home games against United, and they’ve won the last four. That’s a tough record to break. United did win their 13th FA Cup last year, but they haven’t lifted the trophy since 2020. Today, they need a win since replays are out of the picture.
Ruben Amorim has made it clear that Altay Bayindir will be in goal, and good news for fans—Marcus Rashford is back after missing the Liverpool match. It’s a crucial time for both teams, especially with Arsenal gearing up for a big north London derby against Tottenham soon.
Amorim is looking to put out his best squad, but there’s a bit of a dilemma with the goalkeeper situation. Bayindir had a rough outing last month, and now he’s facing one of the best teams at corners. It’s a risky move, but Amorim seems confident.
United’s last performance at Anfield was their best this season, and they haven’t had a week off since August. If Amorim sticks with Bayindir, it might be the first time he fields an unchanged team. That could be a game-changer.
Fans are hoping for a win, especially since United hasn’t tasted victory at the Emirates in seven tries. The last time they won there was back in 2019 under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. It’s been a long wait, and the pressure is on.
If United gets knocked out today, it could spell the end of their domestic season. They’re already trailing in the league, so this match is crucial. The Europa League might be their only focus moving forward.
