Tale of the game
Manchester United may be five points behind leaders Chelsea, but they are unbeaten in their last 15 Premier League games and, at Old Trafford, they have won 15 and drawn one of their last 17 League matches.

Indeed, they have yet to lose this season in all competitions (17) and their 10 League games without defeat is a club record in the Premier League, their best unbeaten start since 1991 and best since 1985, when they were unbeaten in their opening 15 League games.

By contrast, Wolves are one of only four teams yet to win away from home this season, last winning on their travels at West Ham in March.

These teams have already met this season, in the Carling Cup last week, when United won 3-2 thanks to a late goal from Javier Hernandez.

But in their last five League visits, they have lost four, drawn one, conceded 12 goals and scored none.

Wolves also arrive having failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 13 games this season, the longest sequence of any team in the Premier League.

United need four goals for 1,400 in the Premier League. They left Rio Ferdinand behind when they travelled to Turkey to face Bursaspor, but the defender should be available for Saturday’s League game. Anderson, missing with a virus in midweek, undergoes a test, as does Darren Fletcher, who injured his foot after scoring.

Nani was also a victim of the game in Turkey, suffering an early groin strain, and is almost certainly out. United are also still without Wayne Rooney (ankle), Michael Owen (hamstring) and Ryan Giggs (also hamstring), though the Welshman could return to face Manchester City next Wednesday. Owen Hargreaves remains on the sidelines.

Last season: United 3 Wolves 1, Wolves 0 United 1.

Stat of the game: Wolves are bidding to win at Old Trafford for the first time in over 30 years. Their last win there came in February 1980 when a goal from Mel Eves earned Wolves a victory there in the old First Division.

abi o
Pleasant surprise

Let's wait and see!

I'd given up on Hargreaves ever playing again . . . .hopefully he comes through unscathed

The gamble may have been costly as Hargreaves has lasted just SIX minutes!
I just feel so sorry for the guy!

Five minutes playing time  

Hargreaves  

BEBEnlo is set to replace Hargreaves

hargreaves injury

Hargreaves is cursed.

Fergie should never have started him. Dude hasn't started for 777 days and Fergie puts him straight at the deep end.
He shoulda come on from the bench.
Useless decision.

I guess I spoke too early.

Mehn that guy should just resign frm futbol.
Only 6mins played

d only good news is dat it was hargreaves calf(hamstring) instead of is knees

Funny thing is i got in to see Hargreaves walking away and i thought it was from an old match. . . dude makes Rosicky looks like a trojan.

Why Fergie would start a player who hasnt started for over 2 years still beats me.

So far i'm not impressed

Bebe don mad o

it just doesnt seem that he picked him like that.
He MUST have been training with the team for a while now

We dont just have the experienced person from the Midfield to the attack to move the ball forward confidently.

I dey fear o

It doesnt matter if he has trained for 2 years, you are taking a major risk if you START a player that hasn't played for that long period.
Even players out for 6 months rarely get a start not to talk of over 2 years. He is meant to be eased in.

In all the guy is too prone to injuries

I'd like to know the scout that spotted O'Shea as a footballer

I agree with you.
It was a big risk
Players are usually eased in.
I was surprised when I saw the team sheet with Owen's name on it.

Bebe cant even cross the flipping ball.
