On Tuesday night, Manchester United FC will host Chelsea FC at Old Trafford for the return leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final tie. The two sides clashed this past Wednesday in the opening leg of their European battle; a match that saw United go ahead 0-1 at Stamford Bridge after a 1st half goal from Wayne Rooney. On the build-up to the goal, Michael Carrick launched an incisive 50-yard diagonal ball that found Ryan Giggs into space before the Welshman used a sublime first-touch to beat his marker and tee up Rooney for the clinical finish. United have the clear advantage heading into this European night, however, with these two sides being so familiar with each other and with the away side needing to chase goals, expect an open tie with blood and thunder.
Manchester United: United come into the match having won their past six matches in all competitions. The home side currently top the Barclays Premier League with a seven-point cushion over their nearest title-contending rival Arsenal FC. The Reds also have a FA Cup semi-final derby looming versus on Manchester City on Saturday at Wembley. With a slight advantage over Chelsea in this current tie and with the Champions League final also being at Wembley, United chase the audacious ambition of a treble, a feat the club famously achieved in 1999.
After having injuries be a significant concern for the club in the last few months, the news on that front as of late has been generally positive. Owen Hargreaves and Anders Lindegaard continue to be unavailable due to long-term injuries. However, United's victory this past weekend versus Fulham saw the return of health to Anderson and John O'Shea as the duo both started the match. Rafael suffered a knee injury last week at the Bridge but United manager Sir Alex Ferguson said he expects the Brazilian right-back to be available for Tuesday evening's match. Edwin van der Sar has been battling a tweaked groin and despite missing United's last two league ties, the United No 1 is expected to be in between the posts at the Theatre of Dreams. Darren Fletcher has been battling a virus for the past month or so, severe enough to where he's been unavailable during that stretch. However, the Scot has returned to training and he may be fit enough for a substitute's role.
Rafael is considered doubtful for the match due to the knee injury suffered last week. Also, Fletcher did not train on Monday morning at Carrington.
Star-divide
Chelsea: The Londoners have two clear ambitions for their final run-in: (1) Finish top four in the Premier League so that they can qualify once again for Europe's grandest competition. (2) Lift the European Cup for the first time in club history; a feat that is the holy grail for owner Roman Abramovich. Chelsea's most recent match was a league one versus Wigan Athletic, a match-up that saw the Blues fail to impress in a 1-0 victory over the Lactics.
Chelsea have little to be concerned about in regards to injuries. However, David Luiz is unavailable because the former Benfica defender is cup-tied. On the injury front, both Yossi Benayoun and Alex returned from injury to play in the past weekend's match versus Wigan. Chelsea appear to have a clean bill of health.
