Manchester United vs. Cardiff City, Live coverage: Mata, RVP start for Reds

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer returns to Old Trafford tonight, but the limelight will instead fall on new record signing Juan Mata, who makes his full debut starting the game in the hole.

As for Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie, the latter starts up front while the former is on the bench.

In midfield, it's a lot less sexy we're afraid - Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young on the flanks, Ryan Giggs and Phil Jones in midfield. Bleurgh.
