Arsenal and Manchester United lock horns at Emirates Stadium in a huge game in the race to finish fourth.

The picture looks a lot brighter for Arsenal after their win at Chelsea on Wednesday and victory in the lunchtime kick-off would ramp up the pressure on Tottenham.

Arsenal and Spurs are level on 57 points but United are only three points back and, despite all their troubles this season, are still right in the mix to qualify for the Champions League.

United will be boosted by the return of Cristiano Ronaldo but if they fail to improve on a dismal run of two wins in seven games then their hopes of finishing fourth will be virtually over
