Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has been ruled out for three weeks with a foot injury and Rio Ferdinand will be out for another week after missing the victory over Chelsea on Sunday with a back problem.
Evra ruled out for three weeks
-
The French left-back suffered the problem when he crossed for Wayne Rooney's goal in his side's 3-0 win at Old Trafford.
It was Evra's first game back after a four-match ban imposed by the Football Association for his involvement in a post-match fracas at Stamford Bridge last season.
Now Evra is facing another spell on the sidelines, with him missing Wednesday's Premier League encounter with Wigan plus four more games including the Carling Cup semi-final against Derby next Tuesday.

I think Fabio is back but unlike his brother, he has yet play in any EPL games, so I don't think SAF will risk him unless it is a 3-0 win..
sigh, it is a big blow to lose Evra and Rio, but hopefully, they get a good rest..
