Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar is set to return from injury in tonight's reserve match away to Everton.

The 38-year-old has missed the start of United's Premier League campaign, after breaking two bones in his left hand in a match against Bayern Munich during pre-season.

Ben Foster has deputised for the Dutchman in the league, but it was confirmed this lunchtime that Van der Sar will start tonight's match at the Stobart Stadium in Widnes.
