Just when we thought we’d get time to recuperate from that shocking Man United victory over Paris St Germain and Real Madrid’s magnificent exit at the hands of Ajax in the Champions League, the weekend is set to take us on another epic ride, with so much in store across all sport.

Arsenal vs Manchester UnitedThis is expected to be an epic clash thanks to the top four battle [Courtesy]
Competition: Premier League
Venue: Emirates Stadium
Date: Sunday, 10 March
Time: 7:30 pm
It is the biggest game in the Premier League this weekend thanks to the hotly contested top-four race.
The Red Devils head to the Emirates in high spirits after a great comeback victory in Paris. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has enjoyed a string of good results and has lost only once since taking over from Jose Mourinho.
Arsenal, meanwhile, are having a good run in the league, having recently lost only once in their last seven league matches. The London-based side have scored in each of those matches and that poses a threat to the high-flying United.
The Gunners currently occupy fifth place on the log and are just a point behind their visitors.
