Solksjaer faces another stern test as Man United visit Arsenal in FA Cup 4th round

- Arsenal vs Man United set to renew rivalries in FA Cup fourth round game

- Both sides have recorded seven wins each in 14 meetings in the oldest Cup competition

- The Gunners hold the advantage against Premier League sides in this round of the tournament

Arsenal vs Man United at the Emirate stadium on Friday, Janaury 25, is unarguably the biggest tie of the FA Cup fourth round.

The two sides are one of the oldest rivals in English football and the last time they met in the competition was in the 2014/15 season as the Gunners ran away with a 2-1 win at Old Trafford.

Arsenal and Manchester United have met in the FA 14 times and both have eliminated each other seven times each, including the finals.

Caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solksjaer will have another acid test to his managerial spell with United as his side are on a perfect run since his arrival with seven wins out of seven.

On the other hand, Unai Emery's side have been a more solid team in the past week following their comfortable 2-0 victory over Premier League contenders Chelsea.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that there is a bit of tension at Old Trafford as Juan Mata has reportedly emerged as top priority signing for La Liga giants Barcelona at the end of the season due to limited playing time at Manchester United.

The Spaniard made just nine starts from 15 Premier League appearances so far this campaign, scoring two and assisting two others in the process.
