18:20 CET - A moment of magic from Bruno Fernandes on the stroke of half-time gives Manchester United the lead at the break. It had been all Arsenal until Fernandes stepped up to curl a free-kick from 25-yards past David Raya who should have done better.

Where would Manchester United be without their captain?

It is a familiar story for Arsenal though, for all their good football their lack of a striker continues to haunt them.

18:10 CET - Those two goals from stars Kylian Mbappe and Vini Jr. in the first half made the difference in the end as Real Madrid held on to beat Rayo Vallecano 2-1

Carlo Ancelotti is going to need both of them to have big ends to the season if Real are going to retain their LaLiga title.

17:37 CET - As Manchester United and Arsenal get underway in the opening exchanges, it is worth bringing to light the protest outside Old Trafford before kick-off. 

The Manchester United fans were protesting the Glazer ownership (The Glazer family still own the majority of the club) after a concerning start to INEOS' minority takeover with large-scale redundancies amongst a long list of cuts in spending. Meanwhile on the pitch, very little was spent in a January where supporters felt United needed reinforcement. 

17:21 CET - A blow for Eintracht Frankfurt in their battle for Champions League football as they lose 2-1 at home to Union Berlin.

Frankfurt had a great chance to score a late equaliser but Hugo Ekitike missed from the spot!

17:14 CET - It is half-time in Madrid and a goal late in the half from Rayo Vallecano takes some gloss off what was otherwise the perfect half with both Kylian Mbappe and Vini Jr. scoring. Real still lead 2-1 and you would still expect them to win this.

17:09 CET - In the opening game of the day in Ligue 1, Brest claim a routine 2-0 win at home to Angers.

17:02 CET - Over in Serie A and Napoli have held on to a 2-1 win against Fiorentina to move back to within one point of league leaders Inter Milan.

17:00 CET - In the other game, Chelsea did find the all-important second half goal through Marc Cucurella to edge to a 1-0 win against Leicester City.

16:50 CET - Somehow Spurs walk away with a point! Bournemouth dominated and created most of the big chances, but a late response from the home side saw them score twice to draw 2-2. 

Bournemouth's second goal was almost as good as the first as another blistering counter was tucked away by Evanilson with a cheeky chip.

However, Spurs responded quickly through Pape Matar Sarr before Kepa brought down Heung-Min Son inside the box late on and the captain made no mistake from the spot to rescue a point.

16:27 CET - The team news is in from Old Trafford as Manchester United host Arsenal in a rivalry steeped in history but with very little riding on it this time around.

Kick off is at 17:30 CET and you can follow all the action with Flashscore's commentary!

16:01 CET - Disaster for Atletico late on! After taking a lead from the spot in the 75th minute through Alexander Sorloth, things fell apart quickly for Diego Simeone's side. After Angel Correa saw red for the visitors, Mauro Arambarri scored a quickfire brace to give Getafe all three points in dramatic fashion.

That is a big blow in Atletico Madrid's title bid.

15:57 CET - So far so good for title hopefuls Napoli as a Romelu Lukaku goal gives them a slender 1-0 lead against Fiorentina at the break.

15:52 CET - Chelsea meanwhile are struggling to break down Leicester City at home and a Cole Palmer missed penalty compounds the hosts' frustrations so far.

15:43 CET - The half-time whistle has gone at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and a sensational Bournemouth goal is the difference at the break. 

Milos Kerkez will be in high demand this summer, and for good reason, the attacking full-back charged down the left wing on the counter before delivering an inch perfect cross for Tavinnnier to volley home from close range. You won't see a better cross all season. 

It is a similar story for Spurs who have been second best throughout and are again in trouble. 

15:25 CET - As Atletico Madrid search for a winning goal against Getafe, their city rivals Real Madrid host Rayo Vallecano from 16:15 in the next game in LaLiga today
