Arsenal – Man United. Forecast and announcement for the match of the 1/32 final of the FA Cup

On January 12, the match of the 1/32 final of the FA Cup will be held at the Emirates, in which “Arsenal” will meet “Manchester United”. The match will start at 17:00 Kyiv time.

Arsenal

In recent years, the team has grown into the main competitor for the No. 1 favorite. Previously, it was Manchester City, and in the spring Arteta fell behind his friend and teacher by a couple of points. Now only a miracle will help the citizens to return to this race. But at the same time, a new, and even more confident and unconditional leader appeared in the person of Liverpool. And the capital club itself often loses points, including in the last round with Brighton there was only a draw. It is quite possible that it will be necessary to fight for trophies in other tournaments. And just this week, the Gunners played the first semi-final of the League Cup, hosting Newcastle on their field – and there they lost 0:2 at home, which looks almost like capitulation. Taking into account the fact that there is also the Champions League, is it worth spraying on the cup? On the other hand, no one will understand a home failure against an old opponent.

Manchester United

The club managed to win the cup last season, beating City in the final in the derby. But it was precisely that success that led to the fact that Hag stayed on as a coach. In the end, a new manager, Ruben Amorim, appeared anyway, but he did not start with a clean slate in the summer, when it was possible to calmly play something and select a lineup, but he came already in the fall, already trying to save the situation – and with minimal success. In the League Cup, for example, they lost to Tottenham under him. The year 2024 ended with a series of defeats in all tournaments, and they stopped responding to missed ones with their goals. In January, they managed to play against their second historical rival, Liverpool. And it turned out well there: with the sole leader, they ended in a 2:2 draw.
