FULHAM PREVIEW
Man Utd v Fulham
Old Trafford
Sunday, 20 August
Kick-off: 1330 BST
Red Devils captain Gary Neville and centre back Rio Ferdinand both enjoyed run-outs in England's midweek friendly victory over Greece and should start.
John O'Shea and the returning Paul Scholes should form the central midfield partnership in the absence of the injured Michael Carrick.
Louis Saha will lead the line for United against his former club and Sir Alex Ferguson is relying on the French international to shine following Ruud van Nistelrooy's departure to Real Madrid.
Rooney is set to accompany Saha up front having recovered from his groin problem, while Gabriel Heinze is out with a knee injury and will be replaced by either Mikael Silvestre or Patrice Evra at left back.
