Middlesbrough vs Man Utd
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson says it is wrong any team should have to play early on a Saturday after a midweek European tie.
United played Arsenal in the Champions League on Wednesday and live television coverage means they face a 1245 BST kick-off at Middlesbrough on Saturday.

However, goalkeeper Manuel Almunia (ankle), striker Emmanuel Adebayor (hamstring) and defender Johan Djourou (knee) could all be available again.

Middlesbrough 1 – 1 Arsenal
17′ 0 – 1 Goal Emmanuel Adebayor
29′ Jeremie Aliadiere Goal 1 – 1
Former Gunner Jeremie Aliadiere delivered another blow to Arsene Wenger’s flickering Premier League title hopes by denying Arsenal three precious points in a 1-1 draw with Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium.
Aliadiere pounced with a fine glancing header in the 29th minute to cancel out Emmanuel Adebayor’s 17th-minute opener and ultimately ensure Gareth Southgate’s men a well-deserved share of the spoils.
Stewart Downing was denied a second-half winner by a fine save from Manuel Almunia but the Gunners also had their chances through Robin van Persie and substitute Nicklas Bendtner.
And at the final whistle there was little doubt which side was happier with the point with Wenger facing up to the prospect that his side would be even further adrift of the division’s top three by the weekend’s end.

It was almost as if Cristiano Ronaldo had never been away as he marked his return to Manchester United’s starting line-up with a goal as they beat Middlesbrough 3-1 in the Carling Cup third round.
Exactly 125 days after the final one of his 42 last season, Ronaldo converted his first of this one.
A Carling Cup tie with Middlesbrough may be somewhat less enthralling than a Champions League final at the Luzhniki Stadium but the headers were eerily similar, marking the end of a turbulent summer for Ronaldo and providing confirmation he intends to be a major player for United again this season – despite his stated desire to join Real Madrid.
