Blackburn v Manchester United Berbatov and Tevez ready for Ewood Park clash

Blackburn v Manchester United Berbatov and Tevez ready for Ewood Park clash

Can Tevez Score again at Ewood Park?  ProSportsDimitar Berbatov, who opened his scoring account with United last game, and Carlos Tevez, who will replace Rooney, are looking forward to face Blackburn away at Ewood Park tomorrow. Wayne Rooney will be fit for England next week, even though he is still a doubt to play tomorrow.

Rooney has only just returned to training after injuring his ankle in Aalborg last Tuesday, but Sir Alex Ferguson has “no issues” with the 22-year-old joining up with Fabio Capello’s England squad for the World Cup double-header with Kazakhstan and Belarus next week.

United’s Captain Gary Neville is also a doubt with a minor thigh injury, while Owen Hargreaves and Michael Carrick join Paul Scholes (knee) on the sidelines.

Traveling squad: Van der Sar, Amos, Neville, Brown, Rafael, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evans, Evra, Ronaldo, O’Shea, Fletcher, Anderson, Giggs, Nani, Tevez, Berbatov, Rooney, Welbeck.

Aab Aalborg v Manchester United UCL preview

Manchester United are traveling to Denmark to face AaB Aalborg, where they hope to lead Group E with a convincing first win over the Champions League first timers. Aalborg could quit their first European battle with a goalless draw against Glasgow Celtic in Scotland and Aalborg’s Scottish manager Bruce Rioch hope to record another good result against the Champions League holder.

Although the Danish side seems hidden for Sir Alex Ferguson, United are ready for this away test in Match day 2. Fergie’s boys recorded their first win against Bolton last Saturday and they are looking to continue their good form against the Danish champion.

Gary Neville and Owen Hargreaves have been left out of the squad. Neville has just returned to the starting line-up after being slide-lined for 18 months while Hargreaves still suffering from his knee injury which has limited his appearances since his move from Bayern Munich last summer.

Manchester United v Bolton EPL preview

Manchester United are yet to see their best form and tomorrow game against Bolton could see United either recording a first home win or defeat. Manchester United have beaten Middlesbrough in the Carling Cup on Tuesday night and Sir Alex Ferguson’s players would repeat the result in the Premier League.

United are chasing a sixth successive home win over the Trotters. Gary Megson’s side has not defeated United since 0-1 win at Old Trafford on 11 September 2002 when Kevin Nolan got the winner.

Although United played the second team in the Carling Cup, United is likely to start Bolton game with best eleven available. Berbatov will be back upfront with Fergie to decide who will partner (Rooney or Tevez) the Bulgarian Striker. Nemanja Vidic returns from suspension meaning the Serbian will retain his place alongside Rio Ferdinand, as the unfortunate Jonny Evans misses out despite shining in his absence against Villarreal and Chelsea.
