What was once the most intense rivalry in English football in the 1990s and 2000s is now just another accessory, with Manchester United continuing to slip away from the top of the English game.
United began on Sunday 15th at Premier League -21 points behind the second mounted arsenal-with the opportunity to increase no higher than 13th to the end of the day.
Arsenal arrived at Old Trafford with everything besides their place in the Champions League quarter -finals after 7-1 Win to PSV Eindhoven.

It was the second red card of the Lewis-Skelly of the season, and was also pulled against PSV after just 35 minutes after it was closed. Riccardo Calafiori replaces him in starting from this game.
“I didn’t want to take risks and manage the game for so long, especially with how important the competition is,” Mikel Arteta said.
