Arsenal host rock-bottom Sheffield United in Premier League action on October 28 as Mikel Arteta looks to extend the Gunners' unbeaten domestic run.
Arteta's team have picked up 21 points from nine league games this season, including a 2-2 draw at Chelsea last time out, with rivals Tottenham the only other side without a Premier League loss in 2023/24.
In contrast, Paul Heckingbottom's visitors are without a win in their first nine matches back in the top flight, and the Blades head coach is under increasing pressure. Indeed, there is speculation that he will be sacked if his side do not leave Emirates Stadium with a positive result.
Arsenal have won each of the past three meetings with Sheffield United in all competitions, including both their most recent league fixtures back in 2020/21.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it across the world, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

Arsenal vs Sheffield United prediction, odds
The respective form of the two sides offers a clear picture of how this game should go in North London with Arsenal looking to keep up the pressure on Spurs and Manchester City.
The Gunners have scored at least two goals in four of their five home Premier League games this season and three points for Arteta could push Heckingbottom closer to the exit.
