Clash of Titans

Man Utd is hosting Arsenal at Old Trafford this saturday for the 5th round of English FA Cup. Who do you think will win this clash of Titans? Can Man Utd move out from their slump in form on time or will the Gunners continue their fine forms?

Base on the previous 2 weeks results, form book has to be with the Gunners. But looking at the tie which is play at OT, it would not be easy for Gunners to overrun the Devils easily. On the other hand the Devils will not have it their way either.

So it all boils down to who perform better on match day and who could withstand the intense pressure of out-performing the other. Man Utd have the players to do it, and run the show their way. Gunners has proved over and over again they are no pushover eventhough their team is filled with youngsters.

My prediction for this game got to go with Man Utd because:-
1st - I'm a Man Utd fan
2nd - It's playing at OT
3rd - Gunners feel more pressure than Man Utd as they will be starting the match as favourite
4th - Home supporters will push MU all the way
5th - Devils would not want to lose twice in as many games
6th - Until last week MU only conceded 3 goals at OT and score many more
7th - er...... that's all I could think of at the moment!

What about you? Post your opinion here
