Ferguson set to ring the changes

Alex Ferguson has promised to make changes as Manchester United begin three games in a week by taking on QPR at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Nani has recovered from his ankle injury and will return after a five-match absence.

Anderson (hamstring) and Michael Owen (thigh) are both sidelined as United look to take advantage of an earlier kick-off time to open up an eight-point lead on Manchester City in the Premier League title race.

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