Rafael in action against West Ham

Manchester United full-back Rafael has been ruled out of Sunday's trip to Swansea.

The Brazilian missed Saturday's win over Sunderland with a hamstring injury and has still not recovered.

Shinji Kagawa (knee) and Nani (hamstring) are both still sidelined, but Jonny Evans is available after his own hamstring problem.

Provisional squad: Lindegaard, De Gea, Jones, Smalling, Vidic, Ferdinand Evans, Buttner, Evra, Cleverley, Giggs, Fletcher, Scholes, Carrick, Young, Hernandez, Welbeck, Rooney, Van Persie.
