Manchester United will be aiming for a fifth successive win in the Barclays Premier League as they travel to Stoke City who have won two of their last three matches at the Britannia Stadium.
Stoke team news
Stoke strikers Ricardo Fuller and James Beattie are both doubtful for the Barclays Premier League match against Manchester United on Saturday.
Fuller suffered a groin problem in the Carling Cup victory over Blackpool while Beattie is struggling with a recurrence of an ankle injury.
Manager Tony Pulis could recall Richard Cresswell to the attack to partner Dave Kitson.
Man Utd team news
Ben Foster will start in goal for Manchester United at Stoke on Saturday after being given a public vote of confidence by Sir Alex Ferguson.
Tomasz Kuszczak had been hoping to get the nod after keeping a clean sheet against Wolves in midweek but Foster will return as deputy for Edwin van der Sar (broken fingers), who is out for another three weeks.
Plenty of changes are anticipated from midweek, with Wayne Rooney, Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand and Patrice Evra among those certain to be recalled.
