Wednesday night was a great night for all United fans, in a cracking atmosphere the football served up by both teams made for a never to be forgotten evening. The result sent United back to Wembley again and sent city back to Eastlands still searching for their first major trophy since 1976. The match proved that United despite the critics recent comments are a match for anyone and Arsenal await.
The battle at the top of the premier league is as close as it has ever been with the Red Devils, Chelsea and Arsenal all in the hunt. Sunday's Sky game sees Sir Aex's men at the Emirates looking to put a severe dent in the gunners revitalised title ambitions by taking all three points.
United defender Rio Ferdinand starts a four-match ban, after failing in his appeal against a violent conduct charge. Nemanja Vidic is expected to replace him after recovering from injury.
Manchester United have not lost in their last four matches against Arsenal, but they have not won in their last four league visits to Arsenal.
Kick off is at 4pm and the match is on Sky Sports.
