A long shot to take in the Premier League on Sunday
Arsenal and Manchester United have endured very different seasons in 2023-24.
While Arsenal has been one of the most impressive and consistent clubs in the world this campaign, Manchester United have been all over the map and don’t seem to have a direction.
But for 90 minutes on Sunday, none of that will matter as United looks to spoil Arsenal’s title charge.
Manchester United vs. Arsenal odds
Sometimes a number just gets to a point where you need to play it.
That is what we’ve got going on here.
While Arsenal is a much better team and has everything to play for in this match, this price is on its way to getting out of hand.
Manchester United has been an outright mess this season and it will almost certainly cost manager Erik ten Hag his job, but the Red Devils have shown up in a couple of big spots already this season.

Manchester United was given very little chance of getting a result against Liverpool on two separate occasions over the last couple of months, but the Red Devils defied the odds and got a 2-2 draw and a 4-3 win over the Reds.
United also held Liverpool scoreless in a nil-nil draw right before Christmas.
Recently things have been a lot uglier for United, and the Red Devils are coming off an embarrassing 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace, but that result shouldn’t really shock anyone.
It’s just how the season has gone for this team. One week, they’re playing well against Liverpool and the next they’re getting played off the pitch by a team fighting off relegation.

There are some injury concerns for United with Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford questionable, but there’s still enough attacking talent in this side with Alejandro Garnacho, Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount to ask some questions of a terrific Arsenal defense.
So while United isn’t likely to win this match, getting a team with this much talent at +600 (and this number should rise by kickoff) at home is worth a sprinkle.
The bet: Manchester United +600 (FanDuel)
