Man Utd have made a habit of starting poorly in games this season, but they have an early lead here. Now, can they build on that? Young's first goal for more than a year has put United ahead.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Manchester United 1 (13 mins - Ashley Young) Fulham 0. Man Utd have an early lead and it has come from an unlikely source! It's Young! The left back twists and turns and cuts inside before curling home a finish from about 15 yards out. That was a wonderful strike from Young! No stopping that.

Fulham win a corner kick, with Mitrovic picked out with the delivery. But the cross was a little too deep for the Serbian striker to do anything with and Smalling gets there before him.
10'
Cross into the box! Dalot gets down the right side and whips a delivery into the penalty area, but Rico gathers it at the second attempt. Positive signs from the young full back.
9'
Young is back at left back for United this afternoon. He has been playing at right back in recent weeks, but Portuguese youngster Dalot has been favoured in that position for this game.
8'
Matic is another Man Utd player who hasn't been in the best form of late. The Serbian was better against Arsenal during the week, but he has been criticised for slowing down his team's play.

6'
Not a good sign! There are already audible groans from the Man Utd support as Smalling bursts forward only to turn back and make the pass backwards. Frustration building just five minutes in.
4'
It's been a scrappy start to the match here. Neither team has taken a grip of things in the early stages. Much of the play has been in the centre of the pitch, but passes have been few and far between.
3'
Lukaku needs a big performance here. The Belgian has struggled for goals of late, even though he scored in the draw against Southampton last weekend. Criticism is starting to mount.
2'
It really is a dismal day in the North West of England for this game. The pitch at Old Trafford should be slick. That sometimes makes for a better contest. Man Utd fans can hope...

Here we go. About to get under way at Old Trafford. Kick off is just seconds away now.

The two teams are out on the pitch at Old Trafford, with the handshakes taking place. It's a cold and wet afternoon. Great weather for a game of footbal.

Not long until kick off at Old Trafford. What sort of game do we expect this afternoon? Man Utd will be favourites, but they have been struggling of late. Do Fulham stand a decent chance?

Impact! Ranieri has made a difference since coming in as manager at Fulham. They have stopped conceding so many goals, but this afternoon will be a real test for the Cottagers.

No Pogba! Once again, the Frenchman is on the bench for Manchester United. Mata starts on the right side for the Old Trafford side, with Lukaku starting up front. He's not been in the best form recently.
