What time is it?
The game kicks off at 4:30pm on Sunday.
Where can I watch it?
The match is available to watch on Sky Sports Premier League and Sky Sports Main Event. Coverage is set to get underway at 4:15pm.
It’s a big game for…
Arsene Wenger. The Frenchman is coming up against his long-term rivals Manchester United and Jose Mourinho so will be keen for a positive result in his swansong.
He has not won at Old Trafford in the Premier League for a run of ten consecutive games so a victory this weekend would be the perfect parting shot as he departs the Emirates Stadium.
The best stat…
The game between the two sides will see Wenger go up against the Red Devils for the 60th time in his career.
Throughout his time in the game, he has managed against no other side more than United. The next highest amount of games he has contested against a certain club is 59 with Chelsea.
Player to watch?
Alexis Sanchez. Who else would it be? The Chilean comes up against his former club for the first time since departing in January, and considering the circumstances that he departed the Emirates, he is sure to get a hostile reaction.
As a result, the former Barcelona man could well be more motivated to find the net. He has found a bit of form too, and just at the right time. He has had a hand in five goals in his last four games in all competitions with two strikes of his own and three assists.

62: All change
Nacho Monreal and Danny Welbeck come on for Reiss Nelson andSead Kolasinac who is injured.
Anthony Martial and Marouane Fellaini come on for Manchester United, Jesse Lingard and Ander Herrera make way.
68: Victor Lindelof is having a very good game at the back. He neatly dispossesses Danny Welbeck who was running at him at full speed.
There's really not a huge amount happening on the pitch at Old Trafford. Which inevitably means we'll see a goal soon...
72: Anthony Martial is turning it on and really looks in the mood. He skips past Hector Bellerin on the left and delivers a low ball to Chris Smalling who swings and misses the ball from the penalty spot.
75: Marouane Fellaini jumps into David Ospina and the goalkeeper most definitely comes off worse. He's receiving treatment on the pitch with Petr Cech warming up on the touchline.
76: Joe Willock comes on for Henrikh Mkhitaryan who is being rested for the last 15 minutes with Thursday's trip to Madrid in mind.
77: Chris Smalling slips at the back and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is momentarily away but Victor Lindelof makes a quick recovery tackle.
Martial has made a fairly good impression after coming on from the bench. The only downside to his game might be the gloves, in April. Really, Martial?
84: Manchester United look to have found an opening but Paul Pogba leaves a needless foul on Granit Xhaka. More frustration stems from the Old Trafford crowd.
