Tipsters: Tired Red Devils to be held!

Cape Town – Old rivals Arsenal may cash in, at least partially, on Manchester United’s “Paris fatigue” in their important English Premiership meeting in London on Sunday.

It is a case of fifth-placed team entertaining fourth, and the majority of the Sport24 tipsters believe the Gunners will share the spoils with the Red Devils, who may struggle to match the intensity of their Parisian heroism in the Champions League in midweek.

There is even one suggestion of Arsenal taking all three points, although a further two forecasters believe United will triumph – a result that would fall in line with last year’s Emirates Stadium outcome, when they left 3-1 winners.

Compiled by Rob Houwing (Newcastle-partial), the other Premiership prediction panellists are Garrin Lambley (Everton, and defending champion), Lloyd Burnard, Tashreeq Vardien, Baden Gillion and Lynn Butler (all Man Utd) plus Craig Taylor (Liverpool).

Have a go yourself: three points are awarded to the forecasters for an entirely correct score-line, and one for right result.
