UEFA Champions League Semi Final 2nd Leg
May, 4th 2011 20.45 GMT/BST
Old Trafford - Manchester

Man utd return to Old Trafford on Wednesday night for that return leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final tie against Schalke 04. A week ago in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, United convincingly won 0-2 meant for a heroic display by Schalke goalkeeper Manuel Neuer prevented the margin from being larger. Despite overwhelming the German side, the Red Devils didn't score before 67th minute when Ryan Giggs scored being the oldest goal-scorer in the history of your competition. Wayne Rooney added another just two minutes later and United continued to comfortably win; they'll easily be heavy favorites to offer the Champions League final at Wembley on 28 May.
United are battling for trophies on two fronts; with only three matches residing in the Barclays Premier League, the Reds have observed their lead dwindled right down to three points after losing within the Emirates on Sunday to Arsenal FC. The medial side that they're three points free of, Chelsea FC, may come go to the 'Theatre of Dreams' this upcoming Sunday for any potential title-deciding clash. If United are able to hold onto their Champions League semi-final lead over Schalke, the English giant might have earned another trip to the final previously 4 years.
Fatigue is probably a larger concern than injuries for your club. United have seemingly faced a massively important match every 3 or 4 days in the last couple weeks which same urgency continues now. Usually the one major injury concern that they will have is to midfielder Darren Fletcher. The Scotsman has battled the herpes virus within the last few months; the one that has knocked him from action during this period and also caused him to get rid of a considerable volume of weight. He has returned to training as well as took part in a reserves match in the past week, however, his recovery and return to fitness continues to be handled conservatively. Owen Hargreaves and Anders Lindegaard continue being out with long-term injuries too.
The German side have been decidedly disappointing within the Bundesliga simply because they currently sit 10th inside the table. However, Schalke have impressed throughout their current and first-ever semi-final run in Champions League and through reaching the ultimate in Germany's domestic cup competition, the DFB-Pokal. In recent weeks, Schalke show poor form by going winless in four straight matches in most competitions, including a 1-4 defeat by Bayern Munich within the last weekend. It might be a shocking result at Old Trafford when the German side could earn passage towards the Champions League final at Wembley.
Benedikt Howedes missed the match versus United the other day because of an abdominal strain and it appears the center-back will miss Wednesday's match too due to the same injury. Striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar remains out due to a long-term knee injury.
Man Utd : Van der Sar, Fabio, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Valencia, Scholes, Carrick, Park, Berbatov, Owen.
Schalke: Neuer, Uchida, Howedes, Metzelder, Escudero, Farfan, Papadopoulos, Kluge, Jurado, Raul, Edu.
