26 mins: Manchester United 0-0 West Brom
Martial goes down under a challenge in the box – no penalty!
Was there a touch?! Martial looks bemused… went down a tad easily in my opinion, for what it’s worth.
Check complete, no penalty… Martial has his shirt tugged and the Frenchman goes down as a result…
20:22
21 mins: Manchester United 0-0 West Brom
Close for West Brom!
Karlan Grant is found in behind and his shot takes a deflection off Lindelof and trickles just wide!
At the subsequent corner, ex-Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic gets his head to it but can’t direct it goalwards.
20:17
16 mins: Manchester United 0-0 West Brom
Excellent save by Johnstone!
United pounce on a West Brom error on half-way and they break with Rashford on the left. His ball to the back post finds Bruno Fernandes whose touch lays it on a plate for Martial – his shot is strong but Johnstone does brilliantly down low to his left to keep it out!
Pressure building for United here…
20:13
12 mins: Manchester United 0-0 West Brom
Nice opening for Martial down the right but his cross just evades Marcus Rashford in the middle and the visitors clear before Fred can reach the ball!

7 mins: Manchester United 0-0 West Brom
United dominating possession but no accurate penetration in the final third thus far…

2 mins: Manchester United 0-0 West Brom
Early save for Sam Johnstone to make in goal for West Brom!
Juan Mata’s free-kick finds Anthony Martial at the near-post and his glancing header has to be diverted away from goal by ex-United youth team player Johnstone, diving to his right.

Slaven Bilic, speaking to BT Sport:
On changes: Ivanovic and Pereira are back, but Jake Livermore and Kieran Gibbs tested positive and we had a couple of players who have returned to training after testing positive and they are on the bench.
On today’s game: The urgency is continue to play the way we did against Spurs. Of course, we’re playing Man Utd. They’re a strong team. But every game is a big opportunity at this stage of the season.
19:51
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, speaking to BT Sport:
On Pogba: ‘Paul got an ankle injury against Sweden. He tried to finish the training session, but it got worse and worse. Hopefully he’ll be fit for Tuesday.
On Telles: ‘It’s a great chance for him. He’s been waiting a long time to get his chance. He’s got loads of quality that we certainly will get to see here at Old Trafford.
On home form: It’s concerning not to win games. The best game we’ve had was at home with the 5-0 win against Leipzig.
