League leader Manchester United (5-1-1, 16 points) will battle top contender Arsenal (4-2-1, 13 points) in a 2015-2016 Premier League week 8 match at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, October 4.
The Gunners are coming off a dominant 5-2 victory over Leicester City in their previous league match last Saturday at the King Power Stadium, as per Bleacher Report.
Chilean forward Alexis Sánchez scored a hat trick while strikers Theo Walcott and Oliver Giroud added a goal each to complete the rout for Arsene Wenger's side.
The loss, which is the Foxes' first this season as they started with three wins and three draws, now made every team in the English league have at least one defeat in the overall standings.
Meanwhile, the Old Trafford giants are presently looking unbeatable as they were able to string three straight victories after losing to Swansea City during their week 4 match.
Their last game was a 3-0 shutout of Sunderland at home also last Saturday as Wayne Rooney, Memphis Depay, and Juan Mata had goals each for Louis van Gaal's men, via BBC Sport.
With the win, the Red Devils overtook Manchester City for the top spot in the league table and van Gaal would want to hold on to it for as long as they can.
With starlet Anthony Martial leading the team up front, expect another high-scoring game from United.
Prediction: A 3-1 victory for Manchester United over Arsenal.
