Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Manchester United's home clash with Stoke City at Old Trafford. We will be posting the teams imminently...

Bailly blocks to concede a corner on the left wing. It comes out to Rashford, who sprints down the left and loses the ball on the halfway line. Throw-in for Stoke.

Valencia, already booked, fouls Arnautovic from behind. He might have been booked had the ref not already done so earlier. Nothing from the free kick, as Smalling hoofs it away.

Lingard lifts a cross to the back post that Ibrahmovic stabs into Shawcross, and a double ricochet gives Stoke a goal kick.

United still looking for openings.

Lingard forces another save from Grant.

A sterile period of the game, but Stoke will grown in confidence the longer the game stays goalless.

Mata tries a chip from just inside the box, and Grant laps backwards to tip it over for a corner on the left. The cross comes in from Pogba, to the back post, and he angles a header across goal and wide.

Rashford whips in a cross to the near post, and it's easily collected by Grant.

Rashford drives into the box, crosses from the byline, but it flicks up to Ibrahimovic who can't find anyone with his header.

Here's some hardcore analysis.

Lingard receives Ibrahimovic's backheel on the edge of the box. He plays it inside for Pogba, and he prods a shot just past the post.

Shaqiri releases Allen down the right, behind the defence, and he pulls a cross in that bounces off Bony, it comes to Cameron who scuffs towards De Gea.

Valencia is booked for a lunge straight into Pieters. It was dangerous, and more zesty refs might have considered a red card.

United are keeping the ball in defence and midfield at the moment, but Stoke aren't looking especially organised at the back.

Herrera's cross is too high for Ibrahimovic's outstretched, high boot.

Arnautovic comes down the left wing and sends in a cross which is easily cleared. Cameron then has an effort from distance which comes to nothing.

United have had almost all of the ball here. Lingard sends a terrible pass out left, killing the move.

Pogba dives down the left hand side of the pitch, moves down into the area where Shawcross slides in to win a goal kick.

United are dominating possession, playing in front of a massed Stoke City.

Pogba slips in Ibrahimovic down the inside left, in the box. He tries to give the 'keeper the eyes and beat Grant at the near post, but he makes two smart saves to save a goal. Corner for United.

The match gets underway.
