Olivier Giroud starts a three-match suspension following his red card against Fulham. Goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski (rib) is also missing, while Theo Walcott and Lukas Podolski are vying for a starting spot in attack.
Manchester United are expected to bring Rio Ferdinand and captain Nemanja Vidic back into their defence. Johnny Evans is a doubt with a injury, while Michael Carrick is struggling with a knock and could be replaced in midfield by Phil Jones.
What the managers said…
“I am looking forward to our performance on Sunday more than anything else. You focus on your own team and it’s an interesting opportunity for us to achieve something special on Sunday. We want to take this opportunity. We respect Robin van Persie like every other player who has left us and came back to the Emirates. I want the player to be respected like everybody else. I always said that for every single player who left, even some of them in much more controversy than Robin van Persie.” Arsene Wenger says Arsenal will ‘respect’ Robin Van Persie (Guardian Sport)
“I don’t really bother about it and I don’t think Robin should bother about it either. There was a bit of booing when he played against Arsenal at Old Trafford and you probably expect a portion of the fans to do that. That’s the modern generation and modern society, I’m afraid. But I’m glad Arsene has done that (guard of honour) because when they came to Old Trafford some years back and Wiltord scored the only goal we did that, and that’s what great clubs should do.” Sir Alex Ferguson has told Van Persie to ignore the boos when he returns to Arsenal for the first time (Daily Mail)
Pre-match Statistic: Arsenal have scored 18 times in the final quarter of games this season, which is slightly more than Manchester United’s total of 15.
Prediction: Arsenal 1-2 Manchester United
