Arsenal host the holders in the FA Cup’s third round as Manchester United arrive at the Emirates.

The two most successful side’s in the competition’s history go head-to-head in North London, in a huge early match-up. Mikel Arteta will want a response after Arsenal saw their hopes of silverware this season dented in midweek.

A damaging defeat to Newcastle leaves Arsenal with an uphill task to turn around their Carabao Cup semi-final tie.

For the fourth season in a row, Arsenal will wear a completely white version of their home shirt as part of the ‘No More Red’ campaign against youth violence and knife crime.

Manchester United begin their defence of the trophy at Arsenal, looking for a first win in five games. However, Ruben Amorim’s side showed spirit to earn a 2-2 draw at Premier League leaders Liverpool last weekend. Amorim will be demanding another disciplined display from his underperforming side.
