Arsenal vs Man Utd line-ups and team news: Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku start, Mesut Ozil on the bench

Alexis Sanchez has been named in Manchester United's starting XI for tonight's FA Cup clash with Arsenal.

He starts for just the second time under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, returning to the Emirates for the first time since leaving the club for Old Trafford last year.

Romelu Lukaku also comes into the United attack alongside Jesse Lingard with Marcus Rashford dropping out. Anthony Martial is among the subs.

Sergio Romero meanwhile starts in goal for United with David de Gea rested.

Mesut Ozil meanwhile misses out again for Arsenal, settling for a spot among the subs.

Ozil has started just 13 games in all competitions this season with Unai Emery dropping the German for games he considers to be too physical for the playmaker.
