Ferguson to make Vidic decision

Vidic has played in all but one of United's league games this term

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson will decide whether Nemanja Vidic plays for Serbia at the weekend.

Vidic is part of the Serbia squad whose Euro 2008 qualifier against Kazakhstan has been rescheduled for the same day as United's league match with Bolton.

The Group A match was due to be played last Saturday but had to be cancelled because of heavy snow in Belgrade.

Uefa said because the new date falls outside an international window Serbia have no automatic right to keep Vidic.

The Serbs still have an outside chance of qualifying for the finals in Austria and Switzerland.

However, if they fail to beat group leaders Poland on Wednesday, or Portugal take a point from Finland on Wednesday, the Kazakhstan tie will be meaningless.

After Saturday's postponement Uefa attempted to stage the qualifier on Sunday but with 14cm of snow still lying on the Partizan Stadium pitch, those plans also fell through.
