Arsenal host Manchester United in the biggest tie of the FA Cup Third Round

The FA Cup returns this weekend with the Third Round seeing the big boys enter the competition and it's two of the biggest sides that face off against each other in this weekend's fixtures.

Arsenal host Manchester United on Sunday with Mikel Arteta's side looking to make amends for their 2-0 defeat at home to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening.

The Gunners went into that game as favourites and were shockingly beaten by Eddie Howe's side without even scoring a goal and they'll need a much better performance here.

Ruben Amorim's Manchester United will be confident going into this weekend's match after a spirited performance saw them take a point at Anfield against rivals Liverpool in their last game.

Bet365's has United as the outsiders in this game with the current betting odds putting them out to 17/4 against the Gunners at 4/6 to win the match in 90 minutes.

Arsenal v Manchester United - 90 minsOddsProbability

What the expert says...
Arsenal are clear favourites to beat Manchester United in their massive FA Cup Third Round tie on Sunday with the match arguably the headline game of the weekend! The Gunners are given a 60% chance of winning according to the odds with United's probability at 19%.

Manchester City host local side Salford City on Saturday

Pep Guardiola's Manchester City will host local League Two side Salford City at the Etihad in a match which has a lot of backstory of the field to make it an interesting affair.

Salford are owned by Project 92 Limited which includes former Manchester United players Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt and they will see their team face their old rivals City.

It's no surprise that City go into this tie as massive favourites with bookies putting them at 1/22 to get the win against the League Two minnows who are 22/1 to win the match.
