The Premier League is back in action with another set of matches this week as Sheffield United lock horns with Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side in an important clash at Bramall Lane on Monday.
Sheffield United (also known as Sheffield Utd) and Arsenal (commonly referred to as Arsenal FC) meet again 4 months after the Premier League match which Arsenal won 5-0. Sheffield United are on a poor run of form as they’re approaching this clash after defeats from Wolves and Brighton. The coach and the players will probably put extra effort in the defense as they have been conceding goals for 7 consecutive matches now.
Arsenal, on the other hand, are approaching the match in a good mood after claiming a 4-1 win in Premier League against Newcastle United.
