In the most anticipated FA Cup match in the 5th round where only 6 Premiership teams left in the oldest competition in the world, Manchester United will host Arsenal tonight.  United welcome back Rooney and Evra back in the team while Arsenal is having a mounts of injury with AC Milan coming up in the midweek as well on their Champions’ League schedule.

It definitely won’t be an easy game for United no matter how bad or depleted Arsenal squad is.  United has learnt it the hard way on the FA Cup final a few years ago.  I can’t recall in any recent years that United lost two games in the row at home, and I hope this tradition is not broken tonight.

Yes, it’s a big score but coming off a horrible week with Rooney and Evra back, I expect SAF to play full squad.  Rooney, Ronaldo, and Vidic on the scoresheet.
