Hello and welcome to Sports Mole's live Premier League coverage of Sunday's blockbuster Premier League clash between Manchester United and Arsenal at Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag's side are out to make amends for their 4-0 horror show at the hands of Crystal Palace on Monday night and are languishing in eighth in the table, three points adrift of Newcastle United and Chelsea in the race for Europe.
Meanwhile, the Gunners - who are on a four-game winning sequence in the Premier League - return to the road after last weekend's 3-0 home triumph over Bournemouth, although Manchester City's beating of Fulham on Saturday bumped them down to second place.
Arsenal ran out 3-1 victors against Man United earlier this season, but Ten Hag's men won by the same scoreline at Old Trafford in the 2022-23 campaign and have not suffered a Premier League double defeat to the North London crop since 2006-07.
Make sure you don't miss a moment of the action courtesy of our minute-by-minute updates below.
Amrabat has a bit of time to pick his spot, but he slips and Rice blocks.
Who am I to question Nicolas Jover's wisdom, though?
Arsenal play it short, Amrabat outmuscles Saka and Saka fouls Amrabat.
Booking for the 22-year-old.
Antony is on.
He tries his luck, but Raya is behind it.
A useful option against a jaded Man United backline.
The Gunners captain cuts inside onto his left boot, but his 20-yard shot is too central to worry Onana.
This time, though, Saka wins his duel with Garnacho, but Man United straight back on the ball.
Another Red Devils surge sees Garnacho race away down the left, but he loses his footing, and White can usher the ball out for a goal kick.
He has so much time to open up his body and pick his spot, but his strike is well wide. Had to do better there.
Just the 13 years separating those two at either end of the experience scale.
Arteta's management of him amid his three loan spells was questioned, but not any more.
Garnacho is advancing at lightning speed into the Arsenal box, but the Frenchman stands up to him and nonchalantly puts a foot in to stop the attack in its tracks.
A corner comes in from Saka, which Saliba flicks on and over at the near post.
Arsenal get some joy in and around the Man United box, but the Red Devils right-back throws his body in the way of Rice's low attempt.
Sums up Man United's Premier League season, really.
Trossard tries to play provider for Havertz, but not even the 6ft 4in German can reach his overhit cross.
You would suspect there will be a few more to come if he carries on like this.
Been the hosts' most encouraging player so far this afternoon.
Saliba and Gabriel bail him out, but that has lifted the home fans a bit.
Once more, though, Casemiro gets the better of Rice on the left. The Brazilian is at least winning that battle so far.
No changes from either side.
General consensus is that the Ghanaian's challenge on Diallo was borderline, but not spot-kick worthy.
Might Arteta consider bringing Jorginho on for the second half?
"Advantage Arsenal at half time, but their fans won't be able to breathe too easily unless they get a second goal.
"Man United have been decent on the whole in that first half, but they haven't really looked like scoring; Amad and Garnacho have shown glimpses of being able to breach that solid Arsenal backline, albeit only in fleeting moments so far.
"The next goal, if there is one, will be crucial in this game. As it stands, it is Casemiro's lazy defending which has been the main difference between two teams in an otherwise even match on the whole."
This poor bloke currently being torn to shreds by the Sky Sports panel right now.
In fairness, had he made a two-second sprint to play Havertz offside for Trossard's opener, Man United may have headed down the tunnel with their clean sheet intact, or better.
All of their side's hard work inside the opening 20 minutes undone by one defensive lapse.
Meanwhile, Arsenal have been unyielding at the back, and are yet to face a shot on target.
Man United started brightly and had a good structure about them, but a dilly-dallying Casemiro allowed Havertz and Trossard to link up for the opener.
Diallo has been especially bright for the hosts, but Raya has been relatively untroubled in between the posts.
As things stand, Arteta's men heading back to the summit!
He tries to find Hojlund, but Saliba manages the situation well before Mainoo puts in a cross, which Raya claims.
Saliba just landed awkwardly after a nudge from Hojlund, but the Frenchman is quickly back up again and OK to carry on.
He accepts the invitation and tries to pull a cross back for a teammate, but Raya is down low quickly to beat away the chance. Promising signs at the end of the half!
Alejandro Garnacho charges forward into the left-hand side of the box but is eventually swarmed by yellow shirts, and Arsenal survive.
Tierney not allowing the free kick to be taken quickly, though.
Partey did have a panicked look on his face as the Ivorian fell to the ground, but no penalty given.
In fact, he steps on the foot of Partey, who was already on the floor.
Garnacho cuts inside and lets fly, but Tomiyasu is there, and White eventually chests back to Raya.
McTominay's attempt from range now trickles harmlessly wide.
Casemiro's speculative drive was headed away by Gabriel, though.
The £105m man has not set the world alight so far, but Arsenal are in the lead, and that is really all that counts.
Ben White then has a go from a tight angle, but that one is not troubling Onana.
"That is a huge goal for Arsenal, who may have been beginning to worry about their Old Trafford hoodoo following a good start from Man United.
"Arteta's side showed brilliant game management to take the sting out of that start by spending a spell in unhurried possession just before that goal, and then they upped the tempo at the opportune moment.
"It is dreadful defending from Casemiro, and Wan-Bissaka was caught flat-footed too, and all of a sudden Man United's positive opening 20 minutes counts for nothing."
Either way, Gooners will still need to support Spurs for a couple of hours on Tuesday.
From hero to villain, Casemiro plays Kai Havertz onside from Ben White's ball over the top after Man United lose possession straight from a goal kick.
The German advances towards the byline and cuts back for the arriving Trossard, who catches Wan-Bissaka napping and taps home from a yard out.
Rice is slipped in in the United box, but Casemiro stands up to him twice and prevails twice. Improvement from the Brazilian.
Trossard is the next to swing a cross in from the left, which misses everyone.
However, the Portuguese takes up that familiar full-back's central position to let fly from 20 yards, but his shot is high and not handsome.
Arsenal clear, back to square one.
The first 120 seconds or so were ominous, but they are now looking settled in possession and capable of troubling the visitors out wide.
The Englishman slips and sells Raya short with a backpass, but the Spaniard gets there just before McTominay or Hojlund can nip in.
Tell you what, Diallo looks really up for this.
Diallo slips in Garnacho, but Gabriel's leg deflects the ball over for a corner.
Still, see below - big chance.
McTominay robs Partey of possession just outside the Arsenal box but Hojlund skies his chance. A big chance at that.
Encouraging stuff from the visitors, though.
Kai Havertz tries to flick a ball to the back stick, but Diallo pokes the ball behind for a corner.
Or will Arsenal soon be mourning their title fantasy?
Here they come! Odegaard and McTominay sporting the armbands and leading their teams out.
I reckon Man United will still find the net - even with Fernandes and Rashford out - but Arsenal's fire will be too hot to handle. 3-1 to the Gunners... again.
How about a bit of trivia while we wait? Arsenal's William Saliba is just one of two outfield players to play every minute in the Premier League this season, can you guess the other?
Hint, he is also a centre-back.
The women's team are on the cusp of doing just that - they are 4-0 up against Tottenham Hotspur in today's Wembley final with fewer than 10 minutes to go.
However, Man United have scored in all of their top-flight home games since the turn of the year.
With Golden Glove winner David Raya in between the sticks, it is fair to say Arsenal are - literally - still in safe hands.
Arsenal have not done the double over your team for 17 years, last achieving that feat in the 2006-07 season, where Emmanuel Adebayor struck at Old Trafford.
Do not mention his name in the red half of North London these days, though.
Paul Tierney was the referee on that day and is the man in the middle here as well.
Martin Odegaard, Declan Rice and Gabriel Jesus - also omitted from the Brazil Copa America squad - scored on that sunny North London day.
Not many would put it past them to smash that record against a Man United side with a penchant for conceding shot after shot.
Not even the Invincibles managed 27, but the Gunners can write club history today.
Confirmed that Amrabat's inclusion was to try to stifle Arsenal in possession in the middle of the park, while Diallo "deserves" his chance on the right. Think few could argue with him there.
Something tells me that will not be happening.
They will return to top spot with a win and ensure that the title race goes down to the wire, but any other result and Manchester City can clinch the crown at Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday.
As if the Old Trafford faithful needed another reason to feel pessimistic about today's game.
No Jurrien Timber, though; he has travelled with the squad but is still being held back. The Gunners bench looks heavily stacked either way.
Takehiro Tomiyasu and Bukayo Saka have both shaken off knocks to start.
On current form, no surprise at all, although Casemiro does serve as his country's captain...
Amrabat, McTominay and Kobbie Mainoo will seemingly offer more protection in a midfield trident. Ten Hag playing it safe or just no real alternatives? A bit of both most likely.
Subs: Ramsdale, Zinchenko, Kiwior, Jorginho, Vieira, Smith Rowe, Martinelli, Jesus, Nketiah
Subs: Bayindir, Amass, Kambwala, Eriksen, Collyer, Forson, Antony, Wheatley, Ogunneye
The 4.30pm kickoff may be the only English top-flight game on Sunday's menu, but it is one that stands alone thanks to the plethora of historic battles, such as the 8-2 demolition of 2012 or Arsenal's title-clinching 1-0 success 10 years before.
Can the European-chasing Red Devils atone for Monday's harrowing 4-0 loss at Crystal Palace, or will Arsenal return to the summit with a fifth Premier League win in a row? All those questions and more to be answered later, but first, a look at the team news...
