Man United are 7W-1D-2L in their last ten matches where they’ve outscored their opponents 17-8. Striker Dimitar Berbatov has been ruled out for two weeks with an ankle injury. The Bulgarian suffered the problem during the 2-0 Barclays Premier League defeat at Fulham two weeks ago.He currently has eight goals in the EPL and four in CL play. It leaves Sir Alex Ferguson with a major selection headache as Wayne Rooney is also out through suspension. In addition, Carlos Tevez is not due back from South America until later this afternoon following Argentina's stunning six-goal hammering in Bolivia. Cristiano Ronaldo leads his team with 13 goals, while Wayne Rooney has nine.
Aston Villa are in fifth place 13 points back from first, but they look to climb up to Arsenal who are three points ahead. Villa recently lost to Liverpool 0-5 on the road.
