Goal-shy Manchester United expect to have Ruud van Nistelrooy available for tomorrow’s Old Trafford encounter with Chelsea.
The Red Devils managed a miserable one goal from 27 shots in the dismal draw with West Brom on Saturday and Alex Ferguson will look to the prolific Dutchman, now recovered from an ankle injury, to rectify the problem.
Gary Neville is available again after a three-match suspension, while Roy Keane, Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes are expected to start.
Provisional squad: Howard, Carroll, G Neville, P Neville, Ferdinand, Brown, Silvestre, O’Shea, Fletcher, Fortune, Ronaldo, Kleberson, Keane, Scholes, Giggs, Miller, Van Nistelrooy, Smith, Rooney, Saha, Bellion.
