Manchester United will take on Swansea City
at the Old Trafford on Sunday in the 3rdRound
of the FA Cup tie, where David
Moyes will be looking to rotate his squad to good effect as
busy festive period begins to take its toll.
Moyes in his press conference confirmed yesterday that striker Robin van Persie is edging his way back
to fitness. The Dutchman hasn’t featured in almost a month due to thigh injury.
England international Wayne
Rooney is a doubt for this tie after aggravating his groin
injury while Ashley Young will also miss out. Nani, Phil Jones and Rafael are
also doubtful and could miss the tie as well.
So, how will Man Utd
shape up for this game?
In the defence, Rio
Ferdinand should come in alongside Jonny Evans. Patrice Evra might be rested,
while Alex Buttner may get a chance as well.
In the midfield,
veteran Ryan Giggs could start alongside Darren Fletcher, while Moyes could
start with Javier Hernandez as a lone striker.
Prediction: 2-1; Man Utd are undefeated in
their last 5 matches against Swansea in all competitions &
expect them to earn yet another victory on Sunday.
