Alan Hansen, 11th March 2010

Manchester United host Fulham this weekend aiming for revenge against the club that inflicted their biggest defeat of the campaign.

Arsene Wenger’s team arrive at the KC Stadium full of confidence after a 4-match winning streak that has seen them move into the quarter-finals of the Champions League and right back into the Premier League title race.
