The fifth round of the English Premier League matches will start next Saturday with 8 matches.
On Sunday, there will be two matches between Brighton and Nottingham Forest, in addition to the summit of the round between Manchester City and Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium, to end the fifth round in a final manner.
Is Haaland the right choice?
Before the Norwegian tank Erling Haaland, Manchester City striker, plays against Arsenal, we clarify whether the 24-year-old player is basically a suitable option for the fifth round, and specifically what does he offer against the “Gunners”?
Erling Haaland has played 6 matches against Arsenal before, winning 3 matches, drawing 1 match and losing 2 matches, Haaland scored 2 goals and provided 2 assists.
Despite Haaland’s apparent brilliance in the recent period, scoring 9 goals so far in the English Premier League, from only 4 participations, and rewarding everyone who chose him in the English Premier League “Fantasy” game with imaginary points, he may not be the most suitable choice against Arsenal.
Haaland started the current season by scoring two hat-tricks against Ipswich Town and West Ham United in the second and third rounds, and in the first round against Chelsea he scored one goal, and in the fourth round he scored two goals against Brentford.
Haaland’s confrontations against Arsenal began in the 2022-23 season, when Manchester City met the “Gunners” in the 12th round of the English Premier League, during which Manchester City won 3-1 and the 24-year-old scored a goal.
In the 33rd round, Haaland also managed to score a goal against Arsenal in a match that ended with a score of 4-1 in favor of Manchester City.
Last season, 2023-24, Haaland played against Arsenal twice in the English Premier League. In the first match, City suffered a 1-0 defeat, and then they tied in the 30th round without goals. Despite Haaland’s full participation in both matches, he failed to score.
Away from the English Premier League, Haaland played against Arsenal in the Community Shield match in a match held in the 2023-24 season that ended with City’s defeat 5-2 on penalties.
In the FA Cup, Haaland played with Manchester City against Arsenal in a match that ended in favor of Guardiola’s teammates with a score of 1-0, but the Norwegian player did not score or make the only goal in the match.
