Manchester United will re-kindle their bitter rivalry with Arsenal on Tuesday night, when the two clubs clash in the Premiership for the first time since United ended their 49-game unbeaten record.

That game saw the alleged 'Pizzagate" incident, in where food was apparently threw at each other by certain players. However, the Football Association and Sports Minister have demanded the two sides to behave and ordered Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger to cool their war of words.

United are expected to receive a hostile reception at Highbury on Tuesday evening but Sir Alex Ferguson is certain his players will cope with it and stated there are harder away games.

We know what to expect" said the Scot. "And the way I look at it is I trust my players. I've got great players who are going to go down there and face a hostile atmosphere."

"But we've played in far more hostile atmospheres than the one we're going to face on Tuesday."

He added: "It's a great game for Chelsea. Either way one of us will lose ground, or even both of us if it's a draw. That will put Chelsea in a great position. If one wins then the other one suffers badly."

"Players like Paul Scholes, Roy Keane and Ryan Giggs have got that kind of experience and I trust these players."

"I think the confidence of playing Arsenal is always there. There's been nothing between the two sides over the last 10 years, the record books tell you that."

A win would overtake the Gunners and loft United up to 2nd place and close the gap on Chelsea for at least a few days!

Frenchman Pascal Cygan will start with Sol Campbell in the centre of defence due to the absence of Kolo Toure. Ashley Cole, Jens Lehmann, Lauren and Dennis Bergkamp are set to return after being rested in the FA Cup win against Wolves.

Duo Alan Smith and Darren Fletcher are both doubtful with ankle injuries but skipper Roy Keane and Paul Scholes will start in midfield.
