40'
Vlasic spins away in midfield before feeding Holgate, but his cross is gathered by De Gea.
And now United are on the break, with Lingard leading the charge. Everton back off the midfielder and he is invited to shoot, but he screws the ball wide of the post.
38'
United enjoying a decent spell of pressure now. Herrera tries his luck from distance this time, it ricochets off Rooney and the visitors have another corner.
Again, the set-piece comes to nothing.

CLOSE!
Pogba curls a left-footed effort aimed for Pickford's far post, but it takes a slight deflection off Davies and drifts just wide.
35'
Bolasie releases Davies who surges forward on the left channel and his cross is deflected. It looks awkward for De Gea but United manage to scramble clear.

STAT
Mourinho has lost none of his 11 Premier League meetings with Allardyce (W8 D3) – the manager he’s faced the most in the competition without losing, while likewise Mourinho is the manager Allardyce has faced the most without winning.
32'
Rooney has been pretty impressive for Everton thus far, but he concedes possession deep inside his own half just now as Herrera steals the ball. The Spaniard unleashes a shot, but fails to find the target from 25 yards.

STAT
Everton have won four of their eight home league games against Manchester United in the 2010s (D2 L2), after winning just two of their 19 against them at Goodison Park in the 1990s and 2000s combined (W2 D3 L14).
29'
Bolasie gets the better of Lindelof once more as he drops the shoulder and races past the defender. However, he overcooks his cross and there wasn't any of his team mates in the penalty box.
27'
Shaw's perfectly weighted pass slides through Martial on the left. He tries to cut the ball back into a central area, but it's too close to Pickford who pushes the ball clear and Martina hacks clear.
26'
Mata picks out Rojo with his free-kick delivery but he fails to generate much power on his header and Pickford makes a straight forward stop.
25'
Lingard surges forward and is clipped by Keane before going to ground. United have a chance to deliver a cross into the home side's danger area now...
24'
High, wide and not at all pretty from Jones who blazes over from all of 35 yards.
He has only scored once in six years, and no one is entirely surprised.
23'
GOOD CHALLENGE!
An important one, too. Vlasic slides a ball through to Niasse but Rojo gets across to make an intervention inside the box.
20'
A lovely pass by Herrera almost releases Martial, but his first touch lets him down and the ball rolls through to Pickford who collects.
18'
United can only clear to the edge of the box. It bounces nicely for Vlasic to have a crack, but he sends his effort high and wide. He is yet to find the net for Everton in the Premier League.
17'
Davies tries his luck from distance, it takes a deflection and Everton have a corner. The hosts are showing more ambition than their opponents so far.

Matic misplaces his pass prompting Pogba to complain to Mourinho. They have yet to click, United...
