Our young Gunners are set to launch their 2024/25 PL2 league campaign with a highly anticipated curtain-raiser against Manchester United on Friday, August 16. The action kicks off at 7pm (UK) at Meadow Park.
We aim to begin the season on a strong note, with hopes of achieving progress, development and success throughout the year.
Opponent Spotlight
The Red Devils wrapped up last season in 12th place in Premier League 2, securing eight wins, five draws, and suffering seven losses overall. In their most recent outing, United claimed a pre-season friendly victory over Chester a couple of weeks ago, with Gabriele Biancheri netting a brace and James Bailey adding a late goal to seal the result.
When we last faced United in May, we secured a commanding 6-2 victory in the last-16 of the Premier League 2 Division One playoffs.
