United Handed Arsenal Cup Clash

Manchester United will re-kindle their rivalry with Arsenal when the two clubs lock horn in the last 8 of the Carling Cup following last night's interesting draw.

United have already beaten the Premiership Champions at Old Trafford this season, ending The Gunners' unbeaten run of 49 league games.

Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson has denied speculation saying he is set to ditch his youngsters to play a full-strength side, saying: "We will play the same squad we played tonight and give it a real go."

The Scotsman's young side beat Crystal Palace 2-0 on Wednesday night to progress into the quarter-finals courtesy of goals from Louis Saha and Kieran Richardson.

Arsenal's teenage squad proved too talented for Everton's best on Tuesday thanks to Quincy Abeyie and a double-salvo from Italian teenager Arturo Lupoli.
