Teams: Arsenal v Man Utd: Lacazette & Sanchez start
Arsenal can move to within just one point of Manchester United with a win over Jose Mourinho’s men at the Emirates this evening.
Alexandre Lacazette has surprisingly been passed fit to start after recovering from a muscle injury while Alexis Sanchez is also available despite picking up a minor hamstring problem in midweek.
As for United, unsurprisingly Nemanja Matic starts but there is no Zlatan Ibrahimovic on the bench for the visitors.
Here are the line-ups:
Arsenal
Cech, Koscielny, Mustafi, Monreal; Bellerin, Xhaka, Ramsey, Kolasinac; Ozil, Sanchez, Lacazette.
Subs: Ospina, Mertesacker, Coquelin, Wilshere, Iwobi, Welbeck, Giroud
Man Utd
De Gea, Valencia, Young, Lindelof, Smalling, Rojo, Matic, Pogba, Lingard, Martial, Lukaku.
Subs: Romero, Darmian, Blind, McTominay, Herrera, Mata, Rashford
