Both Arsenal and Manchester United have injury worries ahead of Saturday's FA Cup semi-final clash at Villa Park.
Arsene Wenger is set to be without Ashley Cole, who has a knee injury, and Gilberto Silva, who played for Brazil in midweek, while Sylvain Wiltord is not yet quite ready to return from an ankle problem. With Ray Parlour and Pascal Cygan also missing, Gael Clichy will continue at left-back.
Alex Ferguson is facing a striking crisis after revealing Ruud van Nistelrooy is extremely doubtful due to a knee injury. And Ferguson is fearing the worst as Louis Saha is cup-tied and Diego Forlan is not back from World Cup duty with Uruguay.
