Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has made two changes from the 5-1 defeat by Liverpool for tonight's match against Manchester United at the Emirates, bringing in Kieran Gibbs for Nacho Monreal at left-back, and Tomas Rosicky for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in midfield.

Wenger's opposite number, David Moyes, has also made two changes from his side's 2-2 draw with Fulham on Sunday, swapping Tom Cleverley for Darren Fletcher and Antonio Valencia for Ashley Young, who drops to the bench. Marouane Fellaini, who has been out since December with a groin injury, joins Young as a substitute.
