EPL 2018-19: Top 5 clashes to look out for in the festive period

#2 Manchester Utd vs Arsenal - 5th December

Fellaini scored a stoppage winner last time these two sides met, just like he did against Young

It's been a season of turmoil at Old Trafford. Manchester United's slow and unimaginative style of play has angered and frustrated fans, and they are starting to grow impatient on Jose Mourinho.

The Red Devils have won only six of their thirteen matches, not befitting a club of their stature. They trail their noisy neighbours by fourteen points already and are closer to the relegation zone than they are to the leaders.

However, they have made it a habit of winning games despite playing badly. Comeback wins against Newcastle and Bournemouth have saved Mourinho's job for now and they have secured qualification to the second round of the Champions League after scraping wins against Juventus and Young Boys.

Arsenal, for some reason, have struggled to get into games in the first half this season and only switch gears after falling behind in games. They haven't been ahead in any of the thirteen games this season and have only scored seven of the 24 goals have been scored in the first half.

Arsenal have always struggled during their travels to Old Trafford as the last time they won a league fixture here was way back in September 2006. However, things could change this time with Mourinho's men struggling to find the net on a regular basis. This could turn out to be a battle of which team plays the second half better.
