Gunners faced with fixtures pile-up

ARSENAL'S success in the Champions League has meant they now face a hectic end to the season.

Following the clash with Man United at Old Trafford on Sunday, the Gunners must then play their re-arranged Premiership match away to Portsmouth on Wednesday, April 12. Three days later, they will host relegation-battlers West Brom.

The first leg of their Champions League semi-final with Villarreal will take place on Wednesday, April 19, meaning their clash against Man City, which had been scheduled for Easter Monday will now be played on May 4 - just three days after they travel to Sunderland.
