Manchester United -
Everton Preview: Toffees
winless at Old Trafford
since 1992 David Moyes will be
looking to improve his
woeful record at the
home of the Red Devils,
but Sir Alex Ferguson's
side have only been beaten once on their
own turf this season


Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is likely to
make one change from his side's 1-0 win at Fulham,
drafting in Ryan Giggs for Michael Carrick (hip), who sat out England's 2-1 win over Brazil in midweek. Ashley Young could return to the Red Devils squad after
recovering from a knee injury, but is likely to start
on the bench, whilst Phil Jones (illness) is ruled out alongside long-term absentee
Darren Fletcher (illness). Phil Jagielka failed to start
England's friendly on
Wednesday due to a slight knock, but is set to start at
right-back for Everton, with
David Moyes shorn of full- backs Tony Hibbert (calf) and
Seamus Coleman (hip). The Everton boss has no
other fresh injury concerns to contend with, and so is
likely to name the same XI that came from behind to
draw 3-3 with Aston Villa last weekend.

Steven Pienaar bagged a late
equaliser in this fixture last season as the sides drew 4-4, equalling the
highest-ever score in this fixture.
