How can I make a circle that will intersect with two anchor points?

Pic related. As you can see, zoomed out it looks like this circle is a pretty close match; when you zoom in on the anchor points it should intersect, however, you can tell it isn't quite there. How do I line this up just right? The exact size isn't important, what is important is that it intersect both points.

Oops, messed up my own picture. Here's the leftmost point it should actually intersect.

enable smart guides and use the direct selection tool on the point to move it around. or try with the snap to grid/snap to point feature.

Maybe add anchors to the circle where you want to snap the other shape?

Use the line tool between the 2 points
Find out how long your line is
Set the diameter of your circle to that
Turn smartguides on
Bing bang boom, it should snap into place

connect it to one point and expand it until it connects to the other one?
