Manchester United will kickstart the new Premier League season with a huge home match against Arsenal at Old Trafford. Ruben Amorim is well aware he must improve performances over the next campaign, and they are set for a tough start to the campaign, with matches against Man City and Chelsea also within their opening five games.
It will be a baptism of fire for Amorim's new-look United side, and he will hope to have as many new signings in place as possible when they host Arsenal on Sunday 17 August. Matheus Cunha is expected to make his competitive debut in the clash after he was unveiled as the first summer signing last week, while talks are underway to sign Brentford ace Bryan Mbeumo.
United and Arsenal are both also in the market for a striker this summer and will hope to parade proven goal scorers when they battle. Here is a look at how United could potentially line up for the opening day clash.
