FA Cup quarter-final tie between Manchester United and Arsenal should be a joy to watch as both sides will have something to prove at Old Trafford following some disappointing results of late.

Manchester United will be desperate to return to winning ways after losing to both Chelsea and Liverpool, meaning they are likely to give their best in this clash even if the game comes just three days before the Champions League clash with Marseille.

Sir Alex Ferguson will be glad to welcome back Nemanja Vidic to the side following team’s dismal defensive performance at Anfield, while Rio Ferdinand has an outside chance of making the squad.

The boss is likely to make some changes to the side that lost at Anfield, but Park, Anderson, Valencia, Hargreaves and Evans are unavailable for selection.

Having been eliminated from both Carling Cup and Champions League over the last few weeks, FA Cup is Arsenal’s best chance of picking up a trophy this season and Gunners are 5.10 (41/10) to win the competition at Betfair.

The Gunners are still smarting from what they believe was an unfair exit from the Champions League, with numerous selection problems making life increasingly difficult for Arsene Wenger.

Keeper Wojciech Szczesny and Cesc Fabregas have been ruled out of the game, but Robin van Persie should be fit to play. Theo Walcott, Alex Song, Thomas Vermaelen and Lukasz Fabianski are also out.

Manchester United are 2.00 (1/1) to win the game at 888Sport, while Arsenal are priced 4.00 (3/1) at Paddy Power.
