'Duncan Ferguson' sing the travelling fans. They're in fine voice and why not. The goal was checked by VAR as Calvert Lewin appeared to impede Dea Gea but the officials saw nothing wrong. Everton deserve their lead.
36'
GOAL! Man United 0-1 Everton: It's in! Baines whips in his corner, De Gea misses his punch, he should be stronger, and it goes in off Lindelof. Own goal. Terrible goalkeeping.

Iwobi floats in a dangerous cross and it's well defended by Maguire at the expense of a corner.
34'
Baines whips in a deep cross. It's headed clear but only far as Holgate who shoots first time on the volley and that's closer to the corner flag than goal.
33'
Richarlison draws the foul and wins a free-kick on the left flank.
32'
Everton are enjoying a spell of pressure as they force a corner. United can only partially clear and then Fred blocks Iwobi's cross, winning a goal-kick too.
30'
It may be raining hard and it's freezing but Ferguson has taken off his blazer. He's in a shirt now.

Save! Great strike by Rashford. He gets plenty of power behind his effort and Pickford makes a strong one-handed save to push it clear.
26'
Free-kick! Davies, already on a yellow card, brings down McTominay and United have a free-kick in a dangerous position.

Everton sub: Leighton Baines comes on for Digne.

Digne has picked up a knock and it looks like he will have to go off.
22'
United zip the ball down the left flank and Iwobi concedes a corner. But the hosts cannot threaten from the set-piece.
20'
Ha!
19'
United are dominating possession but have yet to test Pickford. Their results against the division's struggling clubs haven't been great and they will have to work hard to win today.
15'
Lingard is fortunate to escape a yellow card. He went in high on Keane and although he didn't make contact it was a dangerous tackle.
14'
Sharp play from United, involving Fred, Rashford and Martial. Pickford is off his line quickly this time to collect, though.
12'
Coleman is having a go at Pickford. He feels his goalkeeper should have came for that.
11'
Chance! McTominay carves open the Everton back line with a lovely pass to James on the right. The goalkeeper doesn't come out - he should - and James should test him, but doesn't, shooting wide.
10'
Wide! Lindelof pokes a through ball to Rashford who flashes his shot wide of the goal from a tight angle.
9'
Everton are playing a 4-4-2, just like they were at home to Chelsea last weekend. Ferguson will be hoping for a similar outcome.
