Manchester United don’t have a great record at the Emirates stadium, never winning a match there in the three years since Arsenal moved stadiums.
However, our second leg Champions League semi-final isn’t just any trip to Arsenal. We can go there with the hope of winning, but it isn’t our primary objective. Any score draw will see us in the final as well as a 2-1 defeat.
History is in our favour!

Every result we’ve achieved at the Emirates before would be enough to see us through to the final of the European Cup. Is Arsenal’s defence strong enough to stop us scoring? And is their attack good enough to score three against us? Who knows, but Ferguson said he would settle for a 1-0 before the game and it certainly does give us the advantage!
