Preview: United vs Arsenal


Its UEFA Champions League night,

After playing a very intense match last weekend, now United must turn their attention once again to the Champions league where they will face Arsenal on the first leg of the all-english semi final at OT. 

What are the odds??

As far as I concern, I think Arsenal is in a good form coming to this match after a 2-0 win over Boro last Sunday with braces from Cesc. Arshavin is in a good form as well, not too mention Nasri,Walcott,and Adebayor. Arsenal do have the threat and will be a great threat for United as always. United must not start this match as they did againts Porto at OT. United must be aware of their threat from the wings with Walcott and Arshavin occupied these two sides. Arsenal on the other hand, do have a quite funerable defensive line. With Silvestre and Toure on the middle of the park, United can exploite these two players as they both are rarely convincing on defence. United must go for it. 

Well, It is a big game after all. United has already lost a match to Arsenal earlier this season at Emirates. So, who will win this first of three meeting in as many days.
