Man Utd v Wigan Barclays Premier League Venue: Old Trafford Date: Saturday, 20 November Kick-off: 1500 GMT (台灣時間11/20 23:00) 直播頻道 (((((((((( 台灣ESPN、MOD頻道 ESPN HD Live )))))))))) 上海體育、香港有線301(hd201)、泰星101 TEAM NEWS Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney may be on the bench after recovering from an ankle problem, while midfielder Paul Scholes is back after a ban. Rio Ferdinand complained of a tight hamstring in England's loss to France, although the centre-back says his half-time withdrawal was precautionary. Wigan will be without defender Gary Caldwell, who could be out for up to six weeks with a thigh problem. On-loan midfielder Tom Cleverley is ineligible to face his parent club. Manchester United (from): Van der Sar, Kuszczak Brown, O'Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic, Smalling, Evans, Evra, Fabio Obertan, Bebe, Carrick, Gibson, Fletcher, Anderson, Nani, Park Berbatov, Rooney, Hernandez, Macheda Doubtful: Ferdinand & Giggs (hamstring), Rafael (thigh), Rooney (fitness), Smalling (groin) Injured: Hargreaves & Owen (both hamstring), Valencia (ankle) Wigan Athletic Al Habsi, Stam, Gohouri, Alcaraz, Figueroa, Thomas, Diame, N'Zogbia, Gomez, Cleverley, Rodallega, Kirkland, Di Santo, Moses, McArthur, S Caldwell. Injured/unavailable: Boyce (hamstring), G Caldwell (thigh), Cleverley (ineligible), McCarthy (ankle), Pollitt (elbow) MATCH PREVIEW - Last weekend's Villa Park comeback may have preserved Manchester United's eight-month unbeaten run, but yet another away draw means they are under increased pressure to claim maximum points on home turf. - The Red Devils have shared the points in six of their seven league games away from Old Trafford this season, and were arguably fortunate to avoid defeat at Villa, Sunderland, Fulham and Bolton. - However, with Wigan the visitors on Saturday, Sir Alex Ferguson's side will be confident of returning to winning ways. They thrashed the Latics 5-0 in both of last season's matches and have won all 11 previous meetings with Wigan. Wayne Rooney has scored nine times in those games - if Sir Alex was to hand pick a fixture likely to help Rooney rediscover form, this would be it. - However, inconsistent Wigan cannot be written off - while they were thumped 6-0 at Chelsea in August, they also caused a major surprise by winning at Tottenham a week later. Roberto Martinez's men have climbed out of the relegation zone after taking four points from home games against Liverpool and West Brom.

M.E.N Prediction: United 2-0 Wigan - tough to see anything other than a home win Key men: United: Darren Fletcher - sets the tempo for Reds in midfield Wigan: Hugo Rodallega - striker will take most chances that come his way Skysports.com's prediction: United 1-2 Wigan One to watch: Victor Moses Lawro and Olly Murs' Premier League predictions United 3-0 Wigan They remain unbeaten at home, but this Manchester United team, by their own very high standards, have played some average football this year at Old Trafford. They are starting to get one or two players back from injury, which well help them. If Wayne Rooney is fit it will be a big boost. Rooney is a world class footballer and is a huge asset. But what will be interesting is what the reaction of the supporters will be to him? Just when you think Wigan are starting to sink again and have a poor result, they come up with another win - the latest against West Brom at the weekend. They keep doing it on a regular basis. However, having seen Wigan I do not think they are a team who are capable of closing out matches. Their better players are their more attacking players and by playing defensively you would have to restrict those individuals which does not make sense. It will be an open game, which is why I think United will beat them quite easily. http://tinyurl.com/23w8o9f http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/9196439.stm http://www.skysports.com/football/match_preview/0,19764,11065_3283504,00.html http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/football_focus/9205695.stm -- ★ ╔╦═╮╔╮ ╭╔╮ ╭╔╦═╮ ╔╮╔╮╭╦═╮╔╮═╮ ☆ ☆ ╠╬╦╯╠╣ ║╠╣ ║╠╣ ║ ╠╣╠╣╠╬═╣╠╣ ║ ★ ★ ╰╝╰╯╰╝═╯╰╝═╯╚╯═╯ ╰╰╯╯╰╝ ╰╰╝ ╰ ☆ ☆ SCORING MACHINE︰ Ruud van Nistelrooy ★ ╔╮═╮╭╦╦╮╭╦═╮╭╦╦╮╔╦═╮╔╮ ╔╦═╮╭╦═╭═╦╮╮ ╔╮ ╠╣ ║ ╠╣ ╚╩╦╮ ╠╣ ╠╬╣ ╠╣ ╠╬╦╯╠╣ ║ ╠╣╚═╬╣ ╰╝ ╰╰╩╩╯╰═╩╝ ╚╝ ╚╩═╯╰╩═╯╰╝╰╯╰╩═╯═╩╯╰═╩╝ --
