Yes, you guessed it right! What more can you ask for on a Saturday night? It’s the ‘Special One’ against ‘Le Professeur’, arguably the most iconic managerial showdown in the Premier League at the moment. Both these men have a famous history of going at each other be it verbal or like how they took it into their own hands on the touchline at Stamford Bridge back in 2014.

However, the magnitude of this fixture can’t be any higher as United are searching for their first league title since 2012-13 despite spending a fortune in search of it after Sir Alex Ferguson stepped down. On the other hand, in recent years, Arsenal have been dethroned from elite status within their own city due to the rise of new powers like Chelsea and Tottenham.

Mourinho has lost just once against Wenger in the league and that came courtesy of a 2-0 win at the Emirates when both sides met back in May.
