Rio Ferdinand will be missing for Manchester United's Champions League quarter-final clash with Porto but Federico Macheda is in the squad.The 17-year-old scored the last-gasp winner to beat Aston Villa on his debut yesterday and Sir Alex Ferguson does not intend to dump the Italian even though he has three senior players returning.Wayne Rooney, Paul Scholes and Nemanja Vidic are all back from suspension, although Ferdinand is sill troubled by his groin problem so misses out.United (from): Van der Sar, Foster, Kuszczak, O'Shea, Neville, Vidic, Evans, Ferdinand, Evra, Eckersley, Ronaldo, Nani, Fletcher, Gibson, Carrick, Scholes, Giggs, Park, Rooney, Tevez, Welbeck, Macheda.
