Other than bringing back Young in for Jones, and perhaps Welbeck for Hernandez, I would expect the team to be pretty much as we've been used to lately. I do hope we can get an early breakthrough and a couple of goals, so that Sir Alex can make a couple of substitutions with the Wigan midweek game in mind. Both Rio and Scholesy will, I suspect, struggle to complete 90 minutes in both and it would be helpful if they could be given some rest. I do, in any case, think that Chris Smalling will play at least 90 minutes in the two games overall. QPR and Wigan, although near the bottom, have both struck some form recently but, provided we apply ourselves properly, we should mark off another 6 points towards no.20.
