Team News
Everton midfielder Jack Rodwell has been ruled out for up to three months with damaged ankle ligaments.
Louis Saha will be missing after he lasted only 10 minutes of his international return for France, but captain Phil Neville is fit
Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand could make a comeback, but Anderson is doubtful and Michael Carrick is out.
Wayne Rooney is likely to play against his former club despite the furore surrounding his private life.
Everton
Doubtful: Neville (foot)
Injured: Anichebe & Saha (both knee), Rodwell (ankle), Yakubu (calf/shin)
Manchester United
Doubtful: Anderson & Ferdinand (both knee)
Injured: Carrick (Achilles), Hargreaves (knee)
Match Preview
Wayne Rooney has made headline news on the front and back pages this week and the spotlight will be on full beam when the Manchester United striker returns to his old club this Saturday
Rooney has received a hostile reception at Goodison Park ever since his £27m move from Everton to United in 2004 - and the Toffees fans have more ammunition than ever to throw at the England striker.
Everton's biggest concern though is getting a first win of the season. They are languishing in the relegation zone, having picked up one point from three games.
Despite that, confidence should not be lacking as they beat Manchester United 3-1 in this fixture last season.
