Current streaks

Recent form

Arsenal

Arsenal have shown impressive form in their recent fixtures, particularly in their last three matches where they've scored an astounding 13 goals. The Gunners are currently on a three-game winning streak, bouncing back strongly from a brief dip that saw them lose two consecutive matches against Inter Milan and Newcastle United. Their attacking prowess has been especially noteworthy, with two high-scoring affairs in their last two outings - a 5-2 victory over West Ham and a 5-1 thrashing of Sporting CP in the Champions League. Despite a slight wobble in early November, Arsenal have maintained their position near the top of the Premier League table, sitting in 2nd place with 25 points from 13 games. Their goal-scoring average of 2.33 goals per game in the last six matches is particularly impressive, while their defence has been relatively solid, conceding only one goal per game on average during this period.

Manchester United

Manchester United have shown impressive form in their recent fixtures, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches with four wins and two draws. The Red Devils are currently enjoying a seven-game undefeated streak, demonstrating resilience despite their mid-table position. Their attacking prowess is evident, having scored 14 goals in the last six games, averaging an impressive 2.33 goals per match. Defensively, United have been solid, conceding only 0.67 goals per game and keeping three clean sheets during this period. The most notable result was their recent 4-0 thrashing of Everton in the Premier League, highlighting their potential for high-scoring performances. While their league position of 13th suggests room for improvement, United's current form indicates they are on an upward trajectory, with a balanced mix of high-scoring matches and tight contests.

Recent home/away form

Arsenal

Arsenal have been in formidable form at home, boasting an impressive five wins and one draw in their last six matches at the Emirates. The Gunners are currently enjoying a four-match winning streak on home soil, demonstrating their dominance in front of their own supporters. Their attacking prowess is evident, having scored 15 goals in these six games, averaging a robust 2.5 goals per match. Defensively, Arsenal have been equally solid, conceding just five goals and keeping three clean sheets. The 4-2 victory over Leicester stands out as a particularly high-scoring encounter, contributing to the fact that 67% of these home games have seen over 2.5 goals. With both teams scoring in half of the matches and Arsenal's goal difference of +10, the North London side are proving to be a force to be reckoned with at home.

Manchester United

Manchester United's recent away form has been characterised by a remarkable run of draws, with five of their last six matches ending in stalemates. The Red Devils haven't managed to secure an away victory in this period, with their only defeat coming against West Ham. Defensively, United have shown some resilience, keeping two clean sheets in their last six away games. However, their attacking prowess has been somewhat lacking, averaging just one goal per game. The standout match in terms of scoring was the thrilling 3-3 draw against FC Porto in the Europa League, which significantly boosted their goals tally. Despite their struggles to convert draws into wins, United have been relatively difficult to beat on the road, with 67% of their away matches featuring under 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards tighter, lower-scoring affairs.
