Team News: Rio Ferdinand misses out for Manchester United

Rio Ferdinand has been left out of the Manchester United starting lineup for tonight's trip to Fulham.

This means that Phil Jones has reverted back to central defence role alongside Jonny Evans, with Ryan Giggs coming into the midfield.

Bobby Zamora does not start for Fulham as Andy Johnson is preferred up front, while Danny Murphy has shaken off an injury.

Fulham: Stockdale; Baird, Hangeland, Senderos, Riise; Ruiz, Etuhu, Murphy, Dembele; Dempsey, Johnson

Man United: Lindegaard; Smalling, Jones, Evans, Evra; Valencia, Giggs, Carrick, Nani; Rooney, Welbeck
