Arsenal vs Sheffield United Match Analysis and Prediction

With the battle for top four intensifying with each match, Arsenal will be looking to return to English top tier as they host Sheffield at the Emirates Stadium. The match is scheduled for 18th January, with kickoff at 18:00 GMT.

Arsenal seemed to gain new momentum in the New Year with the victory over Manchester United giving new coach first win. The game seemed to go well with the first half against Crystal Palace. Tides changed with the equalising strike from Ayew landing the 1-1 draw.

Coach Arteta was handed a significant blow during the clash with Crystal Palace with talisman Aubemeyang receiving a red card following a risky tackle. With the Gabonese International contributing to over 73% of total goals scored by the club in this season.

Coach Chris Wilder had enjoyed a return to the top of the league, with the side currently 6th on the table with 32 points. However, there have been mixed results, especially with the past six matches with only two wins.

Referee Mike Dean has been selected as the official for the game. Arsenal has had a lousy share of bad refereeing decisions which has seen the side lose out on nine points. Sheffield, on the other hand, has had their fair share of wins and losses.
