Arsenal have made a very good start to the 2019-20 Premier League campaign and right now they are third on the league table with 15 points.

The Gunners haven’t tasted defeat in their past five league games and next up they travel to Bramall Lane to take on Sheffield United.

Sheffield United have so far picked up just nine points out of a possible 24 and they find themselves just two points off the relegation zone.

The Sheffield United vs Arsenal match should be an easy three-pointer for Unai Emery and his players especially since the manager has only two major injury concerns to deal with before the match on Monday.
