Manchester United V Arsenal
An early kick off for this match on Saturday (12.45 bst) which could decide if United win this year`s league.
Arsenal are on a horrible run of results, after being beaten 3-1 by United in the Champions League Semi-final they faced Chelsea in the league last weekend and were comprehensively beaten 4-1 which put an end to Arsenal`s 21-match Premier League run.
United are of course on a high having secured a place in this year`s Champions league final, and also claiming the derby honours last weekend by eating Manchester City 2-0, they really never got out of `second gear` against City and put the game beyond their city rivals in the first half with goals from Ronaldo and Tevez.
It almost goes without saying that you should not bet a team that really has nothing to play for, Arsenal have secured their place in next years Champions League qualifiers and cannot move into the top three even if they win their remaining two matches as Chelsea are nine points ahead of their London rivals.
So with only pride to play for I think Arsenal will play second fiddle to the Champions elect, with United a skinny -182 I am going to bet a correct score line 2-1 to United.
