William Saliba is desperate for Arsenal to beat Manchester United when the two sides meet on Sunday, with the Reds currently the only side to have beaten the Gunners in the league this season.
Mikel Arteta's side sit at the top of the Premier League table with an eight-point lead over Manchester City in second. Arsenal, who secured a 2-0 victory over Tottenham in the North London derby at the weekend, have a nine-point advantage over Erik ten Hag's men.
United have won their last nine matches in all competitions and are the only team to have beaten the Gunners in the Premier League so far this season. The Reds won 3-1 against Arsenal at Old Trafford in September, with Antony and Marcus Rashford (two) on the scoresheet for the home side.

Providing they beat Crystal Palace on Wednesday, Ten Hag's side can take a huge step forward in their title push with a win over Arsenal on Sunday, but Gunners defender Saliba has insisted that he is relishing the chance to get revenge over the Reds.
"It is better when you have the pressure at the top than down. It is better like this," he told talkSPORT. "We don’t have to have pressure, we have a big game next week.
"They are the only team to beat us in the Premier League and we want to beat them again at home. We will prepare for this game very good and we will win in front of our fans."
While United will be hoping to take the title race right to the wire this term, former defender Gary Neville does not believe the Reds - or the Gunners will win the league title this season.
Asked whether he thinks Arsenal will win their first league title since 2004 on the Gary Neville Podcast, he said: "No. But I said Leicester wouldn’t win the league [during their 2015-16 title-winning campaign].
"They [Arsenal] won’t win the league, Manchester City will win the league. I think Manchester United will finish second. I know that will annoy Arsenal fans. And it’s annoyed them all season!"
