[Teams] Man Utd vs Southampton: Confirmed Line-ups

Manchester United welcome Southampton to Old Trafford tonight looking to extend their lead at the top of the table to seven points.

Champions Manchester City failed to fully put the pressure on after only managing to collect a point against QPR on Tuesday so United can open up a seven point gap with a win tonight.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has shuffled his pack with Chris Smalling partnering Nemanja Vidic at the back, and Phil Jones replaces Rafael at right back. Danny Welbeck, Robin van Persie and Shinji Kagawa all also return to the starting eleven. Here are the confirmed line-ups for the game:

Man Utd Team

De Gea; Jones, Smalling, Vidic, Evra; Carrick, Anderson; Welbeck, Rooney, Kagawa; Van Persie

Subs: Lindegaard, Rafael, Ferdinand, Valencia, Nani, Cleverley, Buttner
