11/27/2008 - Manchester, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov is set to feature in Sunday's derby after returning to training ahead of schedule.
The Bulgaria frontman has missed United's last two games - both of which were goalless draws - with a hamstring strain picked up while away on international duty last week.
But Sir Alex Ferguson has dropped a strong hint that the club's record signing will play some part in the weekend clash with Manchester City.
Berbatov has found the net six times since joining the Red Devils from Tottenham in August.
"Dimitar started training today but hamstring injuries are never easy to deal with," he said.
"We have to be careful because he has never had one before.
"We will have to gauge whether it is wise to use him from the start on Sunday or better to have him on the bench."
Meanwhile, Ferguson also confirmed that Gary Neville and Paul Scholes have returned to training following groin and knee injuries respectively.
