What's at stake?
For Manchester United (second place; 74 points), this is a chance to go five clear of third place and nearly cement a second-place finish. For Arsenal (sixth place; 57 points), don't be shocked to see some stars rest with Thursday's Europa League semifinal vs. Atletico Madrid on the team's mind. A top-four finish is out of reach at this point, so really Arsenal's best scenario in league is to finish sixth.
Prediction
Manchester United creeps closer to a second-place finish thanks to goals from Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez, who punishes his former club. Manchester United 2, Arsenal 1.
