Nemanja Vidic is set to return for Manchester United's eagerly-anticipated visit to Chelsea on Sunday (4pm), but Rio Ferdinand misses out.

The Serbian has missed two games due to a calf strain but returned to training earlier this week and is expected to be fit, along with £30.75million record signing Dimitar Berbatov, who missed Tuesday's win over CSKA Moscow after taking a bang on his knee-cap.

Ferdinand (calf) is definitely out, along with Park Ji-sung (knee), while Gary Neville is suspended, so John O'Shea is set to return.

United (from): Van der Sar, Kuszczak, Foster, O'Shea, Rafael, Brown, Vidic, Evans, Evra, Fabio, Valencia, Obertan, Anderson, Scholes, Carrick, Fletcher, Nani, Giggs, Rooney, Berbatov, Owen, Macheda.
