Manchester United-Arsenal: Welcome to the Big Boys League

This Sunday will be huge in Premier League Football with English Champions Manchester United facing off against rivals Arsenal.

The Red Devils come into the game on the back of a 1-0 win against AS Roma in the Champions League which confirmed a semi final place for them.

United will be boosted by the return of skipper Gary Neville, who is unlikely to start after playing a mere 10 minutes against the Italians.

Cristiano Ronaldo who has 37 goals this season was rested on Wednesday and should be fresh and firing to face the Gunners. Paul Scholes and Wayne Rooney are also expected to return to the line up alongside Patrice Evra.

However, Arsenal come into the game after a 4-2 defeat at the hands of Liverpool. The Gunners believe they were victimised by several poor decisions by the referees over the two legs.

Arsenal, who are out of the FA Cup, the Champions League and now apparently out of the race for the Premier League are heading for another trophy less season. Arsene Wenger denied a rift between him and Jens Lehmann and has revealed the Gunners will hope for a repeat performance of their 1-0 win at Old Trafford last season.

Adebayor and Van Persie are both expected to start in Manchester. However, Wenger may choose to give young Theo Walcott another opportunity to impress.

Arsenal would be dejected after the defeat to Liverpool but it will be a very exciting game.
