New-look defence for Man Utd

Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson is forced to field a new-look defence for this FA quarter-final match at Old Trafford today.

With Quinton Fortune the latest to arrive in the treatment room following a knee injury, Roy Keane switches to the back again.

He partners Wes Brown with Phil Neville and John O’Shea the full backs.

Goalkeeper Tim Howard, Ryan Giggs and Ruud van Nistelrooy return to the team after the draw against Fulham last weekend.

Fulham manager Chris Coleman takes in the game from his hospital bed after being advised not to travel by doctors as he recovers from a viral infection.

Lee Clark returns to the side after recovering from the knock that sidelined him last weekend.
