During the Arsene Wenger era, United versus Arsenal has been a date on the fixture schedule without parallel, but tomorrow's match, coming in the midst of Arsenal's ongoing implosion, lacks a bit of the luster of previous encounters. It's not even an encounter between the top two sides as Arsenal have slipped to third.
Still, supporters zipping through the digital cable programming schedule and receiving confirmation that the match is on at 11 a.m. Eastern tomorrow (Sunday), can't help but feel a little bit of nervous anticipation.
Red Scare confidently reports that United are to be "firing on all cylinders with Ronaldo and Rooney rested," although Vidic looks to be out.
Arsenal. Well, what you say about every neutral's favorite side: they play good stuff, but can't buy a result. The Arsenal flood of goals has been so long in coming - some supporters have accepted it might not come at all this season.
Form Guide:
United: Blowing away teams 4 nil.
Arsenal: Drawing 1-1.
Prediction: Arsenal to go into Old Trafford and give United and epic beating, likely of the 4-1 variety.

That's a brave prediction, 433. But I'm with you. Looking at the way Arsenal played Liverpool in the second leg of the CL tie, there's still fight in them. The problem is how to bring that out in this biggest of match (for this season).
Anything can happen in a one-off game. If Arsenal can get a couple early goals, it could be a great day out.
GLORY, GLORY, MAN UNITED.
