Owen, Berbatov start for United

Michael Owen and Dimitar Berbatov were handed rare starts as Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson named an attacking line-up for his side's Champions League Group C clash with Romanian outfit Otelul Galati here Wednesday. Owen and Berbatov were named to lead the line as Ferguson aims for three points in his side's first fixture at Old Trafford since their 6-1 drubbing by Manchester City last month. Wayne Rooney also features in the starting line-up in front of a midfield comprising Antonio Valencia, Nani and Anderson. Rio Ferdinand was named as captain and will partner Jonny Evans in central defence, with Nemanja Vidic suspended following his sending off in Bucharest last time out.
