da apostebet: If Wayne Rooney’s late penalty at Ibrox on Wednesday night convinced some that he was returning to his former glories- a much stiffer test is likely to be placed before him on Saturday afternoon as he makes his first start at Old Trafford since the contract storm six weeks ago.
da realsbet: Old Trafford has lost some of it’s aura over recent weeks, as smaller sides have felt able to come and play more expansive football than they have previously been allowed in years gone by. Blackburn are unlikely to be as enterprising as West Brom or Wolves, but will still pose a threat whilst keeping it tidy at the back.
United can hit top spot this weekend should results go their way. Bearing in mind how slow their domestic campaign has been thus far, that they may sit top before Christmas is an ominous sign for the rest of the league.
Prediction: 3-1
