Ruben Amorim’s side are languishing way down in 14th in the Premier League table but have at times shown up for the biggest games this season.
They knocked the Gunners out of the FA Cup earlier this year and will hope to raise their game at Old Trafford.
Still, United drew 1-1 with Real Sociedad in the Europa League earlier this week, and Amorim’s focus is surely on that given that is the last tournament which offers a potential avenue for success this season.
Arsenal thrashed PSV Eindhoven 7-1 on Tuesday to warm up for this one in emphatic fashion. Though catching Liverpool at the top of the table remains a remote possibility at best, such a big result proves Mikel Arteta’s side haven’t dropped their intensity just yet.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

United may well have raised their game against the bigger names this season but even that surely won’t enough given the amount of key players they’re missing.
Arsenal were ruthless in the week and there is little reason why they can’t be here, either.
