Patrice Evra has admitted to being scared for Manchester United as they host Premier League leaders Arsenal in Sunday’s big clash at Old Trafford.
Mikel Arteta takes his side to Old Trafford in what looks a huge test of their Premier League title credentials.
The Gunners are the only team who have won all their five opening games.
While United are coming into the clash off the back of three wins, it remains to be seen how they fare against one of the Premier League’s leading sides in top form.
Still, any win at Old Trafford would likely be a huge statement of intent for the victor, particularly if Arsenal can extend their winning run to the opening six games of the season.

Evra played for United during a period in which they dominated the Gunners, though Arsenal have at least won three of their six games against their rivals.
Speaking to Betfair, Evra said: “Arsenal are in great form, they are winning ugly games and that’s what is scaring me. Against Fulham, it wasn’t a good game but they won. Let’s be clear, Arsenal fear Man United, there’s a massive history between the two.
“I used to call them ‘our babies’, now it’s the other way round and we’re looking more like the babies. This is going to be a tough one and talking with my heart I’ll say United, but anything can happen.”
In last season’s meetings United secured a 3-2 win at Old Trafford while Arsenal sealed a 3-1 at the Emirates in the reverse fixture.
