Hello, good evening and welcome to our coverage of the FA Cup fourth-round tie between Arsenal and Manchester United.

It could be eight wins out of eight matches for Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with his team riding high on confidence.

Arsenal are also not short of confidence, having bounced back from a defeat to West Ham to beat Chelsea in a London derby.

Alexis Sanchez’s first start of the season could be against his former side with Marouane Fellaini, Chris Smalling and Marcos Rojo set to watch the game from the stands.

Maitland-Niles is the leading candidate for Arsenal’s right back role following injury to Hector Bellerin though Emery could spring a surprise by starting Carl Jenkinson.

Both teams have eliminated each other 7 times in the FA Cup so tonight presents an opportunity for one of the two side to increase their tally.

United have won the FA Cup 12 times and are second to Arsenal who are the most successful team in the competition with 13 trophies.

Game starts at 7:55 GMT. Stay with us for all the updates.
