United return to scene

      
   The situation at the top of the Premier League table looks a little different this time around, with the Red Devils out to open up an 18-point lead over their city rivals, who take on Newcastle later on.O'Neill added: "Injuries are inevitable over the course of a season, though they've come at a bad time for us. It's a blow, but there's nothing that can be done about it.Sunderland's current form also offers United further hope, with the Black Cats in a relegation fight after taking just two points form their last six games.The Gunners, though, will still be without playmaker Jack Wilshere, who has not played since the defeat at Tottenham on March 3 after he was rested because of an ankle problem.The performance at home last time out (in the 1-1 draw against Norwich wasn't too good," said Sunderland boss Martin O'Neill. "We didn't create enough against 10 men.The Hoops have enjoyed a mini-resurgence lately with six points from their last three games, but Harry Redknapp's side will need to recover after defeat against relegation rivals Aston Villa in their last league game.The hosts are also without top-scorer Steven Fletcher and club captain Lee Cattermole through injury.
