Man Utd vs West Brom – Di Matteo upbeat over victory
Published:Roberto Di Matteo is witnessing West Bromwich Albion’s best start to a Premier League season and is confident that his West Brom side can travel to Old Trafford and upset Manchester United.
The supposed fall-out between Wayne Rooney and Sir Alex Ferguson means the England striker is a doubt for Saturday’s game.
