Arsenal will take on Manchester United in the 4th round of the FA Cup and the Gunners will be hoping to pick up a win.

The London outfit are flying high after beating Chelsea 2-0 in the Premier League last weekend but Man United too are unbeaten in seven games.

Unai Emery has a number of injury concerns heading into the game but many believe the manager could rest some of his key players for this game.

Arsenal news vs Man United:





Bernd Leno should drop down to the bench and Petr Cech will get a start since the veteran is currently the keeper for Arsenal in the cup games.

Hector Bellerin has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a serious knee injury meaning Stephen Lichtsteiner will take up the right-back role while Nacho Monreal will play at left-back.

Sokratis and Shkodran Mustafi will hopefully play in central defence meaning Laurent Koscielny will drop down to the bench.




Granit Xhaka should start in defensive midfielder but Lucas Torreira might drop down to the bench and Guendouzi could take up his place in central midfield.




Henrikh Mkhitaryan has returned back to training this week but the Armenian is still some time away from making getting back to match fitness.

Aaron Ramsey should also be rested after having a superb game vs Chelsea meaning Mesut Ozil should return back to the matchday squad vs Man United.

Both Lacazette and Aubameyang started vs Chelsea both one of them will surely drop down to the bench to make way for Alex Iwobi.




Youngster Joe Willock should also start the game vs Man United.
