Arsenal vs Man Utd LIVE
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Emirates Stadium
Date: Sunday, 10 March, 2019
Kick-off: 4:30pm GMT, today
Referee: Jon Moss
After a week of contrasting fortunes in Europe, Arsenal and Manchester United have little time to reflect as they collide in what promises to be a pivotal clash in the race for a top-four finish.
Man Utd made three changes to the side that achieved a famous Champions League win at PSG as Paul Pogba returned for the trip to north London.
Arsenal, who were beaten at Rennes in the Europa League on Thursday, made five alterations as Mesut Ozil started back-to-back games for the first time in 2019.
Romelu Lukaku hit the bar early on before the Gunners took a 12th-minute lead through Granit Xhaka.
The midfielder let fly with a swerving effort from long range and it deceived David De Gea and flew into the bottom corner.
Fred then hit the post as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side went close to levelling, but Unai Emery's hosts went into half-time a goal to the good.

Score prediction: Arsenal 1-1 Man Utd
Transformed United have taken a blistering 32 points from 36 available since Solskjaer was parachuted in from Molde in December - a run of 10 wins and two draws from 12 matches.
It is hard to back against them losing any match with the atmosphere currently surrounding the club, especially if they get a few key players back fit, but Arsenal will be desperate not to slump to another home defeat to their old rivals and lose significant ground in the top-four race - particularly with their Europa League hopes seemingly now hanging by a thread.
A low-scoring draw after a busy few days for both teams seems a real possibility.
