Rio Ferdinand is doubtful for Manchester United's Barclays Premier League clash with Liverpool on Sunday but Edwin van der Sar could feature.

The pair have both missed United's last two matches, defender Ferdinand with a back problem and goalkeeper Van der Sar with a groin injury.

Manager Sir Alex Ferguson was due to assess both players in training on Friday, along with striker Louis Saha.

The Frenchman sustained a knock in Wednesday's defeat of Bolton but is expected to be fit.

Spanish defender Gerard Pique could continue in Ferdinand's absence.

England full-back Gary Neville, who has been out for a year with groin and ankle problems, is close to a return after another run-out for the reserves yesterday.

Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has no new injury worries ahead of the trip to Old Trafford.

Defender Daniel Agger is still out, having had a third operation on a broken metatarsal earlier this week. Benitez does not expect his return until next season.

Harry Kewell will captain Australia this weekend in Singapore, and although the midfielder has talked of still fighting for a new contract it seems likely now that he will leave Anfield this summer.

Benitez could field an unchanged side at Old Trafford, although he may use the experienced John Arne Riise in midfield ahead of Ryan Babel.
