Manchester United v Arsenal - Premier League

Wingers: Alexis Sanchez and Jesse Lingard

The duo to return?

Following Martial's uninspiring performance against Brighton and Sanchez's timely return from injury, the Chilean should replace the Frenchman in the line-up.

Sanchez has had a difficult start to life in Manchester but he has shown glimpses of what he is capable of. He is slowly getting into the groove and the signs have been positive.

He played a starring role in United's remarkable comeback victory against Manchester City and the United faithful will be hoping for more of the same next season when he has had some much-needed rest and a good pre-season with the club.

Jesse Lingard's evolution this season has been remarkable, to say the least. With 14 goals and 5 assists to his name in all competitions, he is enjoying his best ever season at the club. We expect him to play on the right wing and cause problems for United old boy Patrice Evra today.

Forward: Marcus Rashford

Another chance for Rashford?

Despite a dismal performance against Brighton, Lukaku's continued absence is likely to ensure Rashford gets the nod again.

He will want to set the record straight and will be hoping to end his 6-game run without scoring, thereby giving his team a much-needed lift ahead of the FA Cup final.

West Ham are likely to play a back-three of Declan Rice, Angelo Ogbonna and Aaron Cresswell and Mourinho will be hoping that his front three can cause them problems with their interplay and regular interchanging of positions.
