[Cal]

Champions League quarter-final first leg: Roma v Man Utd
Date: Wednesday, 4 April
Kick-off: 1945 BST
Venue: Stadio Olimpico
Coverage: Updates on Five Live and on the BBC Sport website

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has sprung a surprise by including Louis Saha and Darren Fletcher in his squad to face Roma.

The pair have been out for five weeks with hamstring and ankle injuries respectively and were expected to play for the reserves on Thursday.

But Park Ji-Sung is out of the match with a knee injury.

Roma defender Christian Panucci is expected to switch to left-back with Max Tonetto out injured.

Defenders Gary Neville, Patrice Evra, Mikael Silvestre and Nemanja Vidic are all out of the tie so Wes Brown and Rio Ferdinand are set to pair up in central defence to contain Roma playmaker Francesco Totti.

Roma will also be forced to make changes in defence, with Christian Panucci set to move from right to left-back to fill in for the injured Max Tonetto and Marco Cassetti stepping in on the right.

Defender Christian Chivu should move forward to replace suspended midfielder David Pizarro.

Man Utd (from): Van der Sar, Kuszczak, Heaton, O'Shea, Brown, Ferdinand, Heinze, Ronaldo, Scholes, Carrick, Fletcher, Eagles, Giggs, Richardson, Rooney, Saha, Solskjaer, Smith, Dong.
