Manchester United legend, Rio Ferdinand, has predicted that his former side will beat the league leaders, Arsenal when both teams meet at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
Ferdinand believes the Red Devils will put a dent in the Gunners’ title hopes this weekend, given how they handled league champions, Man City who are a better team than Arsenal at Old Trafford.
Manchester United travel to the north London club on Sunday and would seek to reduce the gap between them and the league leaders to 5 points.

Erik ten had guided his team to nine wins in a row before Wednesday’s 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.
Making his prediction on the scoreline, Ferdinand said the Premier League clash would end 1- 0 in favour of Eric ten Hag’s side.
“I think Manchester United will go there and win 1-0. That’s what I think,” the former England star told Vibe.
“United are playing with confidence. They’re very assured right now.
“The way they handled Man City – and City are a better footballing team than Arsenal at this moment in time – was really good.”
