Live Blog: Man Utd v Arsenal: Team News, Action & Social Media Buzz

By on March 9, 2015

Welcome to the FA Cup Sixth Round clash between Manchester United and Arsenal at Old Trafford, brought to you by Arsenal’s Official Car And Van Rental Partner Europcar.

The Gunners star in yet another memorable clash during their defence of the Cup, this time heading to Manchester to lock horns with Louis Van Gaal’s men.

There’s little between the two sides in the Premier League, with Arsene Wenger’s team currently edging out their rivals into third place after both recorded midweek wins last time out.

The meeting will be the first real test of Van Gaal’s mettle in the world’s oldest cup competition, with the Red Devils having made a meal of seeing off lower league opposition – including being taken to a replay by Cambridge – so far.

By way of contrast, the Gunners saw off last year’s finalists Hull in the Third Round and turned over Championship high-fliers Middlesbrough – fresh from knocking out Premier League champions Manchester City – last time out.

New signing Gabriel Paulista pulled a hamstring against QPR midweek but otherwise Arsene Wenger has no unexpected injuries to content with as he seeks to book a spot at Wembley for the second year running.
