Team News: Berbatov and Macheda start for United

Federico Macheda and Dimitar Berbatov will lead the Manchester United attack in their Carling Cup quarter-final against Crystal Palace tonight.

Chris Smalling makes his first start in over a month and, despite being tipped to start, youngsters Paul Pogba and Ravel Morrison are named on the bench.

Man United: Amos; Rafael, Evans, Smalling, Fabio; Valencia, Gibson, Park; Diouf, Berbatov, Macheda

Crystal Palace: Price; Clyne, McCarthy, Gardner, Wright; O'Keefe, Dikgacoi, Moxey, Scannell; Zaha, Easter
