Good evening and welcome to tonight's live coverage of Valencia v Manchester United in Group C of the Champions League.

Valencia CF return to a 4-2-3-1 formation with David Albelda in midfield, Juan Mata and Pablo Hernàndez out wide, and Roberto Soldado leading the line.

United’s last three away games in Spain all ended 0-0. Man Utd’s defeat at Bayern in last season’s Champions League quarter final ended a run of 16 games without defeat away from home and six away wins in a row.

Valencia have a decent record against English sides in Europe winning seven, drawing four with only two defeats - to Chelsea in the last eight in 2006/07 and 2007/08.

Sir Alex Ferguson is delighted to have Rio Ferdinand back in his team. 'Rio is much fitter now. He has had plenty of training, a couple of reserve games and matches against Rangers and Scunthorpe. But the important thing is he is coming back and we look forward to having him back.''

The referee is Viktor Kassai of Hungary.

Teams: Valencia: Cesar, Miguel, Navarro, Maduro, Mathieu, Pablo, Albelda, Costa, Mata, Dominguez, Soldado. Subs: Moya, Bruno, Topal, Aduriz, Feghouli, Fernandes, Ricardo Costa Man Utd: Van der Sar, Rafael Da Silva, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Carrick, Fletcher, Anderson, Nani, Berbatov, Park Subs: Kuszczak, Owen, Smalling, Hernandez, O'Shea, Macheda, Gibson

United are seeking their 150th win in European competition in what will be their 280th match.
