United wait for Saha, Ronaldo

Louis Saha and Cristiano Ronaldo are minor doubts for Manchester United’s Old Trafford encounter with Charlton.

Both men picked up knocks in Monday’s draw with Middlesbrough, although manager Alex Ferguson expects the duo to be fit as the Red Devils seek the win required to clinch a place in next season’s Champions League group stage.

With Wayne Rooney missing, Giuseppe Rossi is likely to be on the bench but Gabriel Heinze will not start despite recovering from a groin strain.

Squad: Van der Sar, Howard, Neville, Ferdinand, Brown, Vidic, Silvestre, Evra, Ronaldo, Fletcher, O’Shea, Giggs, Richardson, Park, Van Nistelrooy, Saha, Rossi.
