Man Utd v Arsenal
Venue: Old Trafford
Kick-off: 1600 GMT
Coverage: Live on BBC Radio 5 Live, streamed on BBC website for UK users only. Coverage on BBC website, live on Sky Sports.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admits his side's whole season now hinges on beating Manchester United on Sunday after their Champions League exit.
"It will be the greatest achievement of my career to win the Premier League now because we are swimming against the stream at the moment," said Wenger.
"For us the game on Sunday is the game of the season. If we do not win this game we have no chance.
"We will fight until the last second of the championship."
The Gunners are in third place, six points behind United and three adrift of Chelsea, who play Wigan Athletic on Monday.
"It depends on what happens on Sunday," added the Arsenal boss.
"If we win then we can win the title and that's what is important for us to focus on.
If we win on Sunday then realistically we can win the title
Arsene Wenger
"What is at stake on Sunday is the work of a whole year. If we go there and don't believe in ourselves then it is over.
"But do you really think that we will go to Manchester United thinking that our season is over? That would be ridiculous."
Arsenal would close the gap on United to three points with a victory at Old Trafford, while Ferguson's team would still have to play Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
"We have worked extremely hard since the first day of the season against all the odds," said Wenger.
"We will fight until the last second of the championship, especially on Sunday. If we win on Sunday then realistically we can win the title."
606: DEBATE
Who do you think will win the match?
Arsenal have lost the likes of Abou Diaby, Denilson, Tomas Rosicky and Robin van Persie to injury this season.
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson believes such setbacks have damaged Arsenal's title bid, with the London club having won just one of their last seven Premier League fixtures.
"Arsenal have had injuries," said Ferguson. "You can't win games consistently without your best team.
"You just can't do it, not at the level we're at. You can't get the best results without your best players.
"I think it is Arsenal's injuries in the second half of the season that has made it difficult to rest players."
Should United beat the Gunners on Sunday they will move nine points clear of Wenger's men and all but ensure Arsenal's season, which began so promisingly, ends trophyless.
Arsenal's dreams of lifting the European Cup were dashed on Tuesday when they were knocked out of the Champions League by Liverpool in a thrilling European encounter.
United defeated Roma to seal a place in the last four of the Champions League - but in their previous Premier League fixture they drew 2-2 at Middlesbrough, dropping two points.
We dropped two points last week and we need to win our games, it's as simple as that
Sir Alex Ferguson
"It's hard to recover from these things," said Ferguson of Arsenal's defeat to Liverpool.
"If we beat them, it makes it difficult for them, no question. It's difficult anyway because they're six points behind us and three points behind Chelsea.
"With five games to go there's not a lot of leeway and they can't afford to drop anything really.
"But we have got to look at ourselves and make sure we keep motoring.
"Every game is a must-win now. We dropped two points last week and we need to win our games, it's as simple as that."
But Ferguson is unhappy with the scheduling of the fixtures over the final weeks of the season.
Chelsea play Everton four days after Wigan - and Blues boss Avram Grant has already expressed his displeasure.
But Ferguson countered: "They've got a good rest for Monday and then three days later they've got Everton away and then they've got a five-day break before they play Liverpool (in the Champions League).
"Then they've got a four-day break before they play us in the league game. Our schedule is a bit more congested."
United play Barcelona twice and Chelsea in the space of seven days.sigpic
