Match Preview: Saturday,2nd March 2013, One of the important match Man Utd v Norwich of Barclays Premier League HD Quality Live Man Utd v Norwich streaming is available here.Man Utd v Norwich Live Stream online Barclays Premier League Video Free The match will take plcae at Goodison Park on 3/2/13 Preview Pictures and Wallpapers its mean all things are available in my blog please see and check here for latest things.On 2 March 1991 a fresh-faced, willowy winger called Ryan Giggs trotted on the pitch at Old Trafford to make his Manchester United debut as a substitute against Everton.On 2 March 2013, 22 years later to the very day, he will play his 1000th career game against Norwich City; that is assuming that Sir Alex Ferguson has not had a sentimentality bypass and decides to leave him out, which seems unlikely given that news of a new one-year contract for the Welshman was released 24 hours before kick-off. It has already been a season of landmarks for Giggs, his goal against Everton (them again) three weeks ago ensured that he has scored a league goal in each of the last 23 seasons. He's already overtaken Mark Hughes to go joint seventh in Manchester United's all-time goalscorers' list; a 13th title winner's medal seems almost a certainty; a third Champions League winners' medal is a possibility.
Giggs is only the third British outfield player to reach the thousand game mark, after Tony Ford and Graeme Alexander.
In the modern era, the only player who compares to Giggs is the fantastic Paolo Maldini, who played 25 seasons for AC Milan.
Milan retired their number three shirt when Maldini stopped playing, promising that it would only ever be worn again if one of his sons should graduate to their first team; after all, how could the number three shirt in red and black stripes bear any other name than a Maldini? Maybe United will consider doing the same when Giggs pulls off his number 11 jersey for the last time?
That is still at least a year away. Maldini finally called it a day on 1028 games for club and country when he was a month short of his 41st birthday. Giggs isn't 40 until November and will play on another season as living proof that - despite what some TV stations tell you - people were kicking a bit of round leather across a pitch even before the Premier League was spawned.
Team News:
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed that Robin van Persie is available for selection after recovering from a hip injury.
Phil Jones is not yet ready to return, and Paul Scholes is also absent with a knee problem.
Norwich are still without midfielder Alex Tettey due to a knee injury.
New signing Kei Kamara may be handed his first start following his impressive goalscoring display off the bench against Everton last weekend.
Head-to-head
Norwich last won at Old Trafford in August 1989, a 2-0 win in the old Division One.
In five Premier League visits to Old Trafford, Norwich have drawn once and lost the rest.
Manchester United
Manchester United have not lost a Premier League match since a 1-0 defeat at Norwich on 17 November.
Only one team in Premier League history has gained more points from their opening 27 games than United's 68 this season (Chelsea had 69 in 2005-06).
United have scored the same number of goals (63) as Chelsea did in 2009-10 after 27 games. Chelsea went on to end the season with a record 103 goals.
Nani has assisted more goals than any other player in the Premier League since August 2009 (32).
Rafael's goal against QPR was United's 12th by a defender this Premier League season. That is the most for any club (Chelsea and Norwich have eight goals by defenders).
Norwich City
Against Everton last weekend, Norwich engineered a come-from-behind win for the first time since March 2012 (2-1 at home against Wolves).
In doing so, they also ended a run of nine Premier League matches without victory.
