Cleverley set to face Liverpool

Tom Cleverley is expected to play some part in Manchester United’s crucial Premier League encounter with Liverpool at Old Trafford tomorrow.

Provisional squad: De Gea, Amos, Smalling, Rafael, Ferdinand, Evra, Evans, Fabio, Fryers, Cole, Carrick, Cleverley, Scholes, Pogba, M Keane, Valencia, Park, Giggs, Young, Nani, Rooney, Welbeck, Berbatov, Hernandez.
