    Opta stats

    • Sheffield United are unbeaten in their last four top-flight home games against Arsenal (W1 D3) since a 0-2 loss in April 1991. However, this is their first such meeting since December 2006.
    • Arsenal have played more Premier League games at Bramall Lane without victory than they have any other ground in the competition (3 - D2 L1).
    • Sheffield United have lost their last three Premier League home games. They last lost four in a row at home in league competition in April 1965.
    • Sheffield United have scored just one goal before half-time in the Premier League this season, fewer than any other side. All seven of their goals have also all been scored by different players, including benefitting from two own goals.
    • Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has scored 49 goals in 75 games for Arsenal in all competitions - a goal here would see him become the sixth fastest player to reach the 50 milestone for the Gunners.

    Charlie's prediction

    It is a cracking test. I am a big fan of Chris Wilder. I like their energy and dynamic. They have very good variety going forward, while Arsenal defensively are vulnerable too. It is an awkward one.

    Alexandre Lacazette will be on the bench which is a good sign. I would like to think Hector Bellerin and Kieran Tierney should start.

    Arsenal should be targeting third place with how they have been. They are liable to the counter-attack and you cannot trust the defence, but I expect Arsenal to win.

    Sheffield United do not have a lot of goals in them, but they will score. It will be a very exciting on Monday night.
