Why Manchester United could have the edge over Arsenal in 2026/27 title race

A new analysis published by Tribuna’s The Crown and The Ball has highlighted why Manchester United could challenge Arsenal for the Premier League title this season. Arsenal begin their defence after finally ending their 22-year wait for the championship, but concerns over injuries and player fatigue could affect their consistency.

United, meanwhile, enter the campaign with Michael Carrick permanently installed as manager after winning 11 of his first 16 league matches. The club have also strengthened midfield and attack, creating renewed optimism that United can mount a serious title challenge.
