Manchester United will be looking to extend their unbeaten Premier League run to six matches when they travel to Cardiff City on Sunday afternoon.
David Moyes's side have won four of their last five games, the latest coming against Arsenal two weeks ago.
Cardiff's 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa before the international break means that the Welsh club sit 14th in the table, two points clear of the relegation zone.
United could move into second if they win and other results go their way.
Cardiff boss Malky Mackay could welcome back striker Andreas Cornelius, who has recovered from the ankle injury that has kept him out for two months.
Moyes will be without injured pair Michael Carrick and Phil Jones, while Nemanja Vidic could miss out after the defender suffered concussion against Arsenal.
