Middlesbrough vs Manchester United Preview

Man United have the early kick off tomorrow, after playing on Wednesday which means that Fergie will be forced to make changes because we have just an important game against Arsenal on Tuesday.

There has been some good injury news, Rio Ferdinand hasn't broken a rib, he won't play tomorrow but he could be fit for Tuesday.


If United win tomorrow we will go six points ahead of Liverpool who don't play until Sunday, Boro might be fighting for their Premier League survival but they will prove to be a stern team tomorrow and we will have to be on top of our game.

Wes Brown has returned to the United squad after being out injured for 12 weeks whilst Jonny Evans is doubtful after picking up a foot injury after replacing Ferdinand against Arsenal.

Middlesbrough will be without Emanuel Pogatetz who has a knee injury and Chris Riggott who has an ankle injury. Didier Digard was a used substitute for Boro last week and he is in line for a start.

Squads:
Middlesbrough: Jones, Turnbull, Hoyte, McMahon, Taylor, Grounds, Wheater, Huth, Hines, Aliadiere, Tuncay, Bates, O'Neil, Walker, Shawky, Downing, Johnson, Digard, Alves, King.
Man United: Van der Sar, Foster, Kuszczak, O'Shea, Rafael, Brown, Vidic, Evans, Evra, Ronaldo, Nani, Scholes, Fletcher, Carrick, Anderson, Park, Giggs, Rooney, Tevez, Berbatov, Macheda, Welbeck.

My Prediction: Middlesbrough 0-2 Manchester United
