Manchester United are sweating on the fitness of Phil Jones and Jonny Evans ahead of Wednesday's Champions League showdown with Real Madrid.

Both players were substituted during Sunday's 2-0 victory over Everton which saw Sir Alex Ferguson's team extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table to 12 points.

Northern Ireland defender Evans has been plagued by leg cramps since he returned from international duty last week.

There are more growing concerns over Jones, who took a nasty kick on the calf against the Toffees and later left Old Trafford with an ice-pack strapped to his leg.

The pair will travel with the rest of the Red Devils squad and will be assessed in Madrid, where the imposing Bernabeu and Cristiano Ronaldo lie in wait.

Ferguson admits: "It will be a fantastic game on Wednesday - I just hope I can get the team out on the pitch I want to get out."

Sir Alex could spring a surprise or two with veteran midfielder Paul Scholes in contention to start against Mourinho's men.
