Manchester United v Everton

Nemanja Vidic should return to the heart of Manchester United's defence for Saturday's Premier League encounter with Everton at Old Trafford.

The Serbian has been struggling with a calf injury but came through his country's midweek international with South Korea and is expected to feature as Rio Ferdinand (back) and John O'Shea (thigh) are definitely out.

Jonny Evans (calf) and Michael Carrick (ankle) are also doubts, while Fabio (groin) is definitely missing.

Everton winger Diniyar Bilyaletdinov is suspended for the trip to play United.

The Russia international serves the second of a three-match ban for his sending-off in the 1-1 draw with Aston Villa on 31 October.

Midfielder Tim Cahill has returned from international duty with Australia with a minor groin problem and is a slight doubt.

Manchester United squad: Van der Sar, Foster, Kuszczak, Neville, Brown, Vidic, Evans, Evra, Rafael, Valencia, Anderson, Fletcher, Scholes, Carrick, Giggs, Nani, Berbatov, Rooney, Owen, Macheda.

Everton squad: Howard, Heitinga, Yobo, Baines, Distin, Hibbert, Cahill, Gosling, Fellaini, Rodwell, Saha, Yakubu, Neill, Nash, Jo, Baxter, Agard, Wallace.
