We are under way in all three of the Premier League games this evening.

No shortage of autograph hunters wanting Manchester United manager David Moyes' signature as he makes his way to the dug-out. We are ready for the off and the atmosphere is crackling...

Norwich manager Chris Hughton has made the trip to the Emirates. The Canaries play Arsenal on the final game of the season and they may well need a result.

The bromance is strong between those two. David Silva and Juan Mata have arms around each others shoulders before the teams advance down the tunnel and Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart barks some orders.

Games faces firmly in place by the time they hit the fresh air.

Tony in Kent: Can anyone suggest a reason why Manuel Pellegrini persists with Demichelis? Kompany clearly doesn't trust him. Whenever they play together Kompany looks less assured.

Alex Hurd from Manchester: Fellaini has a chance to show United fans that he can really influence a game today. Not seen it so far..

Swansea boss Garry Monk on his team's 2-0 win at Emirates Stadium last season: "You have to draw on those results to beat teams like this. We are using it as part of our motivation."

"You just wanted more passion from the Arsenal players against a Chelsea side who are one of your biggest rivals. I expected a lot more.

"The players have a responsibility to keep the ball and not go gung-ho as they did twice in the first 10 minutes at Chelsea. They didn't learn from their mistakes. You can talk about tactics all day, the players have to show a bit of fire in their belly."

Manchester City finish their warm-up and scuttle down the tunnel as "Glory, Glory Manchester United" gets a spin on the stadium decks.

Don't blame them, it's a shocker of a club song.

Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata: "It is my first derby. It's exciting, a massive game in the city. Manchester City are having a great season, with great players but we will try to win at home.

"The last week was very good for us. We will try to do the same, we try to score, play with passion and create lots of. It is a pleasure for me to play with Wayne Rooney, he is a top striker who can do everything. It is a pleasure for me to play behind him.

"I have very good friends in the City squad, David Silva, Alvaro Negredo, Jesus Navas. Today they are rivals, but tomorrow we are friends again."

Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko: "We are ready - that's important. A derby is always the biggest game of the season, even if United are not in their best form. It's a massive game for both clubs and for the fans We come to win the game.

"We are not thinking about another big win. If we win 1-0 I'll take it."

That predicting the opposition's tactics shtick works better when you call it bold and confident like Jose Mourinho reading out the Barcelona team after his Chelsea selection in 2005. , external

Manchester United manager David Moyes talking to Sky Sports: "We've got one extra midfield player, we wanted to make it tighter in the middle of the park. We'll use Juan Mata in different positions throughout the game as we have done all season, use him wisely and get the benefit of him.

"City will play David Silva behind Edin Dzeko up front. Maybe Samir Nasri will drop behind Edin Dzeko, I don't know, but they've been roughly the same all season. They've shown what they can do, they are a big threat going forward.

"We go into the game confident off two good results, so we don't see any reason why we can't go out and show what we can do."

"I just think this is frankly a disappointing, conservative team selection by Manchester United tonight."

Is tonight the end of a six-month wait for Northampton Town? The Cobblers have been in the League Two relegation zone since mid-September but after a run of just two defeats in the last 10 games, they could climb out tonight.

Chris Wilder's men host AFC Wimbledon this evening, and with every other side from 14th in the table down all playing away, this could be the chance they have been waiting for.

Incredibly Portsmouth - who were playing AC Milan in the Europa League five years ago - could replace the Cobblers in the drop zone if they suffer a big defeat at leaders Rochdale.

It's a busy night in Scotland too. Aberdeen can move clear in second place with a positive result at Ross County, who are battling to avoid the relegation play-off spot. St Mirren occupy the dreaded 11th place at the moment and they will be looking to nudge up the table as they welcome St Johnstone to Paisley.

There is also a full card in the Championship, with leaders Dundee at home to Queen of the South and nearest challengers Hamilton Accies taking on Raith Rovers.

Former Manchester United winger Lee Sharpe speaking to BBC Radio 5 live: "If you're going to buy a number 10, you should play him in the number 10 position. I think Juan Mata has been unfairly done by playing out wide, his best position is behind the front two.

"It'll be good to see Wayne Rooney up front because he's started scoring goals and he's been playing well all season. I think that's going to be a good combination and something that not many people have seen. It's as good as any front two in the country."

All League One eyes are zoomed in on the top of the table tonight, with four of the top six all playing each other.

Second-placed Brentford are at Rotherham - who are up to fourth - while Preston (fifth) host Peterborough (sixth). A return to Deepdale for former North End gaffer Darren Ferguson.

At the bottom Carlisle face Shrewsbury in a bona fide six-pointer, and bottom-placed Notts County will hope build on their 4-1 smashing of Carlisle at the weekend when they travel to Crewe.

Leaders Wolves host Colchester.
