Van Persie fit to face Madrid?

Manchester United striker Robin van Persie will reportedly be fit to face Real Madrid next week despite suffering a hip injury against Queens Park Rangers.

Van Persie was forced to withdraw before the break in Saturday's 2-0 win at Loftus Road after colliding with a camera behind the goal after 23 minutes.

The Dutch striker was replaced by Danny Welbeck but will only be out of training for a maximum of three days with bruising to his hip, according to the Daily Mail.

United host Madrid next Tuesday in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 clash, with the tie finely poised at 1-1 following Welbeck's goal at the Bernabeu.
