Champions League, Group F
Date: Tuesday, 2 October
Kick-off: 19:45 BST
Venue: Old Trafford
Tomasz Kuszczak will make his Champions League debut for Manchester United after fellow goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar was ruled out with a toe injury.
Defenders Wes Brown and Nemanja Vidic are also doubts for the home side after picking up knocks against Birmingham.
But former Bayern Munich midfielder Owen Hargreaves is in line to make his European debut for the Red Devils.
Roma are missing winger Rodrigo Taddei and defenders Christian Panucci and Marco Cassetti because of injury.
However, midfielder Simone Perrotta could play despite injuring his thigh in the 4-1 league loss to Inter Milan.
Van der Sar has not conceded a goal in seven hours and 44 minutes since he was beaten by Geovanni's deflected effort off Vidic in the derby against Manchester City.
But Pole Kuszczak, 25, made a fine save from Gary McSheffrey's deflected shot after coming on at half-time in the 1-0 victory over Birmingham.
Tom Heaton, 21, will cover Kuszczak on the bench but has yet to play for United.
Cicinho looks set to return to the starting line-up in place of Panucci, who has a back injury.
