Man Utd v West Ham
Quote:
Manchester United will definitely be without defender Nemanja Vidic for the crucial match against West Ham following his recent concussion.
However, striker Wayne Rooney (hip) could be fit to start on the bench and Patrice Evra, who was stretchered off at Barcelona in midweek, will start.
West Ham expect winger Julien Faubert to have shaken off a slight hamstring problem to be fit to start.
However, Freddie Ljungberg (rib) has been added to the list of injuries.

The squad:
Manchester United (from): Van der Sar, Neville, Brown, Ferdinand, Silvestre, Evra, O'Shea, Ronaldo, Scholes, Anderson, Nani, Hargreaves, Carrick, Giggs, Park, Fletcher, Rooney, Tevez, Kuszczak, Pique, Welbeck.
This is a huge game, I don't know what the team will be like, the backline could either include Pique at CB with Brown at RB or same as Wednesday with Hargreaves RB and Brown CB.
I'd guess at a sort of 4-4-1-1 sort of thing with Tevez and Ronaldo up top, Park and Giggs on the wings and Anderson and Carrick in the middle.
Big game though, we're more likely to drop points here than against Wigan (although neither ought to be particularly likely) so a win here will really put the pressure on Chelsea on Monday.
