Arsenal forward Nicklas Bendtner could make his first start for three months
against Manchester United as Eduardo is sidelined with a torn hamstring.
Sol Campbell is on standby to replace Thomas Vermaelen, while Alex Song and
Emmanuel Eboue are both available.
United's Rio Ferdinand starts a four-match ban, having failed in his appeal
against a violent conduct charge for his clash with Hull's Craig Fagan.
Nemanja Vidic is expected to replace Ferdinand after recovering from injury.

MATCH PREVIEW
- Chelsea will keep; the animosity between Arsenal and Manchester United may
have cooled in recent seasons, but the competitive fire still burns for the
Premier League's oldest adversaries.
- Arsenal's defeat at Old Trafford in the reverse fixture caused an infuriated
Arsene Wenger to reopen hostilities by accusing United of "anti-football"
against his side, in the form of systematic fouling.
- Wenger also brought farce to the Theatre of Dreams in August when he was
sent to the stands in the dying seconds for kicking a water bottle, only
to become stranded on a roof between baying United supporters. It is safe
to assume he would prefer a different kind of lofty position at the end of
this match.
- Both Arsenal and United have briefly led the Premier League in the last
fortnight, with the Gunners coming back from an 11-point deficit while the
champions have relied on Wayne Rooney as a one-man wrecking ball.
- United have already silenced their noisy Manchester neighbours in the last
few days and if they end Arsenal's 10-match unbeaten run then Wenger could
be hitting the bottle again. Just don't expect Sir Alex Ferguson to share a
glass of something red or white with him.
MATCH FACTS
Head-to-head
‧ This will be the 42nd time Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger have faced
each other. Ferguson has won 16 times to Wenger's 14, with 11 draws (two
of which were then settled by penalties).
‧ Manchester United are unbeaten in their last four matches against Arsenal
in all competitions, winning three. But they have not won in their last
four league visits to Arsenal, including all three matches at the Emirates
Stadium. Their only away victory in the last nine was 4-2 at Highbury in
February 2005.
‧ United did, though, beat Arsenal 3-1 at the Emirates in their Champions
League semi-final meeting in May.
Arsenal
‧ The Gunners are the division's form team, earning 24 points from 10
unbeaten league games since a 3-0 home defeat to Chelsea in November.
‧ They are the Premier League's leading scorers with 59 goals in 23 matches.
The midweek goalless draw at Villa was their first of the season.
‧ Arsene Wenger needs one win to register 300 as a Premier League manager.
He will become the second manager to reach this milestone after Sir Alex
Ferguson (438). Wenger has only lost 80 of his 509 league matches in charge
of Arsenal.
‧ Cesc Fabregas has scored five goals in his last five league matches.
Manchester United
‧ United have taken 13 points from their last five games, with Wayne Rooney
scoring seven goals in those matches.
‧ They have not won any of their last six away league matches at Big Four
opposition, losing five times.
‧ Dimitar Berbatov celebrated his 29th birthday the day before this match.
Darren Fletcher turns 26 on Monday.
‧ Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes have each scored 99 Premier League goals.
Only 17 players have scored 100 goals or more in Premier League history.

M.E.N Prediction: Arsenal 2-2 United
- it's all set for another cracker between these two old rivals and there
should be little to choose between them
Key opponent:
Cesc Fabregas - orchestrates Gunners midfield and has 14 goals this season
- hard to believe he still only 22
Skysports.com prediction: Arsenal 2-2 Man United
One(s) to watch: Cesc Fabregas & Wayne Rooney http://tinyurl.com/y9ljwt2
Lawro's Premier League predictions Arsenal 1-1 Man United
I never get too excited about the great big 'Super Sunday' matches, and I
just think this one will end up a draw.
Sir Alex Ferguson will have his three central midfield players, whether it's
Paul Scholes, Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher or Carrick, Fletcher and
Anderson, and saturate the midfield.
It could be one of those games where there won't be a lot of space, not a lot
of time and generally not a lot happening.

前瞻：阿森納
曼聯中文官網 http://tinyurl.com/ye47clm
曼聯期望在週日爭取首次在英超聯賽在酋長球場取得勝利……
雙方近況：
曼聯剛剛在德比戰在最後時刻絕殺曼城晉級決賽，這是紅魔本賽季第二次在德比戰絕
殺同城死敵了。最近5場聯賽，曼聯打進13球繼續與領頭羊切爾西和阿森納爭奪冠軍。
阿森納在周中與維拉互交白卷後暫時排名第三。雖然上週末在足總杯被斯托克城爆冷
淘汰，但在聯賽，槍手已經10輪不敗，本賽季他們在主場只輸過給切爾西。
傷停情況：
費迪南德受到停賽四場的處罰將缺陣，不過維迪奇有望傷癒復出。奧謝和哈格裡夫斯
仍然缺陣。
主隊很有可能失去維爾馬倫，他在對陣維拉的比賽大腿受傷，前鋒愛德華多因為腿筋
問題也將缺陣。迪亞比和梅裡達也可能缺陣，此外阿森納還有范佩西、德約魯和吉布斯等
長期傷兵。
焦點球星：
阿森納隊長法佈雷加斯狀態極佳，本賽季他已經打進14球。這位西班牙中場結合了技
術、視野和活力，他將成為曼聯的主要威脅。
對手主帥：
溫格是阿森納歷史上最成功的主帥，在13年執教生涯中，他帶領槍手贏得3次英超和
4次足總杯。法國人在過去10多年十分享受跟弗格森的鬥法，本賽季他們再次向聯賽冠軍
發起衝擊。
裁判：
這是福伊本賽季首次執法曼聯的聯賽比賽。他曾執法曼聯在足總杯輸給利茲聯以及聯
賽杯擊敗巴恩斯裡還有社區盾對陣切爾西的比賽，本賽季他在所有比賽僅出示3張紅牌。
競爭對手比賽：
切爾西將在週六作客伯恩利，下週二他們還將與胡爾城踢一場補賽。利物浦主場迎戰
博爾頓，曼城將對陣樸茨茅斯。
