EPL: Arsenal Vs Manchester United Preview..Drop Your Views and Predictions!! by Holuwahyomzzy: 10:43am On May 07, 2017
Manchester United will be aiming for a 26th consecutive unbeaten Premier League game when they travel to Arsenal on Nissan Super Sunday.


Jose Mourinho's side have set a new club record for the highest number of games without a loss in the top flight in a single season, and another this weekend would match that of Nottingham Forest in the 1977-78 season.


The signs look favourable for United as Arsene Wenger has only beaten old foe Mourinho once in his career - winning the Community Shield in 2015 - and has never done so in the Premier League (W0 D7 L5).


But Arsenal will have the advantage of no midweek game after while United beat Celta Vigo 1-0 in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final on Thursday.

Arsenal & Utd's unusual situation

It's 40 years since Arsenal and Man Utd played each other in the second half of a season with both teams outside of the top four.

The Gunners are also unbeaten in their last four Premier League games at the Emirates, but will be looking to get back to winning ways after losing the north London derby last Sunday.

Team News

Mourinho plans to rest tired United players this weekend. Marcus Rashford could be one such player after he limped off against Celta and Ashley Young exited with an apparent hamstring complaint shortly after coming on.

Jose Mourinho admits he could rest players for Manchester United's Premier League game at Arsenal today.

Marouane Fellaini is banned from domestic action, while Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Luke Shaw, Marcos Rojo and Tim Fosu-Mensah are sidelined with injuries.

For Arsenal, Granit Xhaka (ankle) will miss out but Shkodran Mustafi has returned to full training and could feature.

The Gunners will also monitor Lucas Perez (knock), while David Ospina is available following his muscle injury.

POSSIBLE STARTING LINE-UPS

Arsenal (3-4-2-1): Cech, Mustafi, Koscielny, Holding; Chamberlain, Coquelin, Ramsey, Monreal; Ozil, Sanchez; Welbeck

Man. United (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Darmian, Smalling, Jones, Blind; Carrick, Herrera; Lingard, Rooney, Mata; Martial
