However, speaking to the News of the World ahead of the game, the Spaniard revealed the enormous amount of respect he has for the reigning European champions.
“I'm a massive Man United fan,” explained the 21-year-old.
“I have no problem saying United are one of the best clubs in the world - even though I want to beat them.
“They are the best side in the world at the moment - a top, top side and we respect them a lot.”
The midfielder also took time out to praise United stars Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo, whom he clearly expects to be the main danger men for the Red Devils.
“Rooney and Ronaldo are amazing. I really and admire them for what they do,” he added.
“I am a big fan of both of them. You can expect just about anything from them and they always make a difference in games. Look at Ronaldo against Porto - what a goal! It was one of the best goals I've seen.”
Yet despite his words of praise for Wednesday’s opponents, Fabregas also made it clear that he was confident his Arsenal side could knock United out of the Champions League.
“United are probably our biggest rivals but they are a team who play good football,” he added.
