Arsenal will have to cope without Bukayo Saka for this evening's huge clash against Manchester United with Mikel Arteta making just one change from the side who beat Southampton this week. Saka has been arguably Arsenal's best player this season with the 19-year-old established as a first-team regular.

Arsenal confirmed on Twitter that Saka has been rested as a precaution due to a sort hip.
He's set to be a big miss for Arteta, who heaped praise on Saka earlier this week for his impact.
"He's really humble, really respectful and at the same time has that character to demand the ball, to make decisions that are not very usual for his age.
"We need that leadership and he's gaining that with his attitude and his performances.
"He's all the time asking to train more to improve in areas that he can do better.
"That was certainly one, producing the final bit in the box to score or assist. He's doing that much more often."
Arsenal are looking to do the double over United after sealing a 1-0 win at Old Trafford back in November.
Solskjaer's side though have been in excellent form since that defeat though, going on a 13-game unbeaten run.
