Neville set for start

Gary Neville could be in line for his first start for four months as Manchester United look to protect their 100% Champions League record against Olympiakos at Old Trafford.

Manager Sir Alex Ferguson hinted after Saturday’s 3-1 win at Charlton he could throw Neville into the fray following his recovery from a broken foot.

Ferguson has a number of niggling injury worries, including Ruud van Nistelrooy (hamstring), Juan Sebastian Veron (flu), Mikael Silvestre (knee) and Nicky Butt (back) but he anticipates a clean bill of health.

PROVISIONAL SQUAD: Barthez, Ricardo, Carroll, G Neville, P Neville, Silvestre, Blanc, Ferdinand, O’Shea, Tierney, Roche, Veron, Beckham, Butt, Veron, Giggs, Stewart, Scholes, Pugh, Van Nistelrooy, Solskjaer, Forlan.
