Man Utd vs Arsenal



Manchester United vs Arsenal

This is it... In less than 6 hours we'll be able to know Arsenal's chance of winning the Premiership this season. A defeat or a draw will realistically banished Arsenal's dream of winning any silverware at all this season and this is their 3rd season without any trophy.

Man Utd is leading on top of the table with Chelsea trailing by 3 points and Arsenal by 6 points. That means, if Arsenal could win tonight's match against Man Utd they are very well still in the race but they have to look at Chelsea before hoping to grab the championship.

It is a crucial one for Man Utd. They can't afford to drop anymore points as Chelsea is lurking right behind their tail waiting for United to slip up and snatch the title away. If Man Utd fail to win this match, they are in deep trouble because on 26th of April, United will travel to the "Invicible" Stamford Brigde, home of Chelsea.

For more than 2 years ever since Jose Mourinho took over as Chelsea's manager, they have never lost a home game. That is a very remarkable record.

Therefore, as the season has 5 games to go(4 games for some of the teams played last night) the Premiership title is very much up for grab between Man Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal. Hopefully, United will emerge as the winner and retain their title.
