Everton have recalled keeper Iain Turner from his loan spell at Sheffield
Wednesday and he will step in for Tim Howard, who is ineligible.
Andy Johnson is having intensive treatment on his sprained ankle but seems
certain to miss the game.
MANCHESTER United are forced to make several changes for their visit to
Goodison Park after the number of fixtures begins to take its toll.
Ji Sung Park is the latest casualty for the Reds and will miss the rest of
the season with a knee injury although Louis Saha is expected to be in the
Red Devils squad for the crucial trip to Everton.
Saha has not featured since the win over Liverpool at the beginning of last
month but the Frenchman appears sufficiently happy about his recovery from
long-standing hamstring problems to put his body on the line once more.
Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand are not expected to play this weekend but
could be in line for the visit to AC Milan next week.

Turner, Hibbert, Yobo, Stubbs, Lescott, Naysmith, Arteta, Carsley, Neville,

KEY PLAYER NOTES/POTENTIAL MILESTONES
* Cristiano RONALDO and Wayne ROONEY are Manchester United's joint top
scorers with 22 goals each.
* RONALDO is the club's leading marksman in the Premiership with 16. The
Portugal World Cup star is three behind Chelsea's Didier Drogba at the
head of the race for the Barclays Golden Boot.
* RONALDO needs a double to total 50 goals for the Red Devils.
* ROONEY returns once again to his former club, where he made 77 appearances
(67 in the Premiership) and scored 17 goals (15 League) at the outset of
his career, until his £20m move to Old Trafford in August 2004.
* Paul SCHOLES is one goal short of holding the record outright as
Manchester United's highest scorer of Premier League goals. He has
netted 95 and equalled Ruud van Nistelrooy's total. Ryan GIGGS has
scored 93 times in the Premiership.
* GIGGS is a double short of 100 League goals.
* If selected in the 11, Gary NEVILLE will be making his 350th Premiership
start - all for the Red Devils.
* If involved, Louis SAHA will be making his 100th appearance for the Old
Trafford club.
* If he plays, John O'SHEA will be appearing two days before turning 26.
