Arsenal travel to Old Trafford to face Manchester United in a game that could decide the Premier League title race.
As Arsenal prepare to face Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday evening, the stakes are higher than ever.
With a chance to make a statement win and put pressure back on Manchester City in the Premier League title race, the Gunners must confront their dismal record at the Theatre of Dreams.
Their record of just one win in 16 Premier League visits leaves little room for optimism, with the 1-0 victory in 2020, the last time they tasted success on this ground.
Arsenal must banish Old Trafford ghosts to stay alive in title race
Delving deeper into the statistics shows that before that 1-0 win, Arsenal had not tasted success at Old Trafford since 2006.

This woeful record has become a psychological barrier, one that the Gunners must overcome if they hope to keep their title hopes alive.

Premier League table: Relegation battle, European qualification and Title race still open
The end of the 2023/24 Premier League season is just one week away, and several twists are expected on the final day.
Defeat to United would all but hand the title to Manchester City, who would then require just one win from their remaining two games.
Arsenal are still massive favourites, but they must assert themselves from the first blow of the whistle to avoid crumbling under the Old Trafford lights.
Kickoff is 4;30 pm WAT.
