Arsenal take on Manchester United in Premier League action.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger
Arsenal will be desperate to pick up three points this Sunday as they attempt to close the gap on fifth place Manchester United. The Gunners had picked up three straight wins before losing 2-0 last weekend to rivals, Tottenham Hotspur.
The Gunners haven’t finished outside the top four since 1996, and their poor season has called the future of long-serving manager Arsene Wenger into question. Could defeat at the hands of another rival pile on the pressure further?
Manchester United will be keen to pick up a win this weekend as they look to leap-frog arch-rvials Manchester City into fourth place. Jose Mourinho, who joined the Red Devils last summer, is looking to bring Champions League football back to Old Trafford.
Manchester United have only won three of their last seven Premier League fixtures, picking up four draws in the process, with two of those wins coming away from home.
