Arsenal host Manchester United in Premier League action on Saturday in what is sure to be an enthralling match-up.
Both sides have been the league's in-form teams in recent weeks and will be looking to continue their good form when they meet at the Emirates on Saturday.
Arsenal currently sit in ninth on the table, 10 points behind Manchester United who placed second in the Premier League.
Manchester United travel to Arsenal after their shock defeat at the hands of Sheffield United earlier this week.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will hope that loss was just a temporary lapse in form as his team continue putting pressure on Manchester City at the top of the table.
Mikel Arteta's side are on a great run of form, which has seen them pick up 16 of the 18 Premier League points available since Boxing Day.
The Gunners go into the fixture knowing that they are capable of beating Manchester United, having already triumphed in the reverse fixture earlier this season.
This historic fixture pits two Premier League heavyweights against each other, with both teams having a point to prove this season.
Arsenal vs Manchester United Head-to-Head
The last five meetings between the two teams makes for good reading if you're an Arsenal fan. The Gunners have not lost in the Premier League against Manchester United since April 2018. The North Londoners have won three of their last five games against the Red Devils, drawing the other two.
The Gunners came away from Old Trafford with all three points earlier in the season. A Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's penalty was enough to secure a 1-0 victory over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.

Arsenal vs Manchester United Team News
Arsenal
Mikel Arteta could still be without club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for Saturday's fixture. The striker has not been involved in Arsenal's last two games, after going back home to help take care of his sick mother.
Arsenal will also be sweating on the fitness of Kieran Tierney, after the full-back missed the Gunners' last two fixtures with a calf issue. However, Mikel Arteta's side will be boosted by the return of Dani Ceballos from injury. Meanwhile, new loan-signing Martin Odegaard could feature in some capacity.
Thomas Partey and Emile Smith-Rowe came off against Southampton after picking up knocks, but neither looked too serious. Pablo Mari remains a long-term absentee.
Injured: Pablo Mari
Doubtful: Kieran Tierney, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Thomas Partey, Emile Smith-Rowe

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be relieved that his side came away from the game against Sheffield United relatively unscathed. Manchester United should be boosted by the return of Eric Bailly, who missed Wednesday's game after picking up a slight knock.
