Man United vs. Arsenal prediction
After suffering a record-breaking defeat against Crystal Palace, United will be determined to make amends on their return to Old Trafford.
However, Arsenal just cannot afford to drop points if they want to take the title race to the final weekend of the campaign. This is a difficult one to call, but the Gunners should be able to see it through.
Prediction: Man United 1-2 Arsenal
