EPL: ARS v MUN - Ronaldo and Saka lead the captaincy picks

Teams to be updated before the match

Match details:

Arsenal vs Manchester United
Emirates
April 23rd, 5:00 pm

Preview:

Arsenal and Manchester United continue their battle for the Top 4 and they face off today at the Emirates. The two sides are separated by three points and this will be a proper six-pointer. 

Arsenal stunned Chelsea during the week and will be looking to repeat that this weekend. They can go six points clear of Man Utd and all but end the Red Devils chances of making the top 4. 

Manchester United need to win today to keep their top 4 hopes alive. A win would see them go level on points with Spurs and Arsenal, but after playing a game more than them.

Arsenal lost 3-2 to Manchester United earlier this season. 

Suspension and injuries:

Arsenal: Thomas Partey and Kieran Tierney are out.

Manchester United: Fred, Paul Pogba, Edinson Cavani and Luke Shaw are out. 

Probable starting line-up:

Arsenal: Aaron Ramsdale, Ben White, Rob Holding, Gabriel Magalhães, Nuno Tavares, Mohamed Elneny, Granit Xhaka, Bukayo Saka, Martin Ødegaard, Emile Smith Rowe, Edward Nketiah

Manchester United: David De Gea, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Phil Jones, Victor Lindelöf, Alex Telles, Nemanja Matić, Scott McTominay, Jadon Sancho, Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford, Cristiano Ronaldo

Top picks: 

Cristiano Ronaldo: The striker should be back after missing the previous game because of his tragic personal news. He will be keen on getting on the scoresheet vs a side he loved playing during his first stint. 

Bukayo Saka: The Englishman will be the top pick of the day from Arsenal as he has been doing well. He could easily get a goal or assist today. 

Eddie Nketiah: The striker did well against Chelsea and got a brace. He will be keen on showing why he should continue starting over Lacazette.

Captaincy options:

  1. Cristiano Ronaldo
  2. Bukayo Saka
  3. Eddie Nketiah

Fantasy XI:
