    It's all Manchester United now. Marcel Sabitzer curls a beauty towards the top corner but it's well saved by Illan Meslier.

    Alejandro Garnacho throws himself to the ground after the tiniest of touches from Wilfried Gnonto and gets a free-kick. Gnonto is furious, but the free-kick comes to nothing.

    Leeds are hanging on a bit here. Raphael Varane's shot is blocked by Max Wober and Junior Firpo, who both throw themselves at it, and then Varane's header is saved.

    What a goalline clearance by Max Wober! Alejandro Garnacho goes round Leeds keeper Illan Meslier and takes a couple of touches to compose himself before shooting - but Wober heads his effort off the line.

    Fred clips a ball over the top to Bruno Fernandes but the Portugal man can't control it. Wasn't a great pass in truth.

    Leeds' sporting director Victor Orta is here tonight.

    Whatever the outcome of his trip to Spain, he was in his seat for kick-off.

    That is Leeds' second injury replacement of the first half, although that is a concussions sub so doesn't count as one of their five changes.

    Leeds' physios have made the right decision here. Pascal Struijk looks dazed and he's replaced by Junior Firpo.

    Good to see some responsibility being taken there with concussion.

    The physios are doing the concussion checks with Pascal Struijk. Junior Firpo is warming up in case.

    Pascal Struijk is still down. It's been at least a minute.

    Only Leicester (19) have dropped more points from a winning position this season than Leeds (13).

    It was one of the recurring themes of Jesse Marsch's time at Leeds that his side failed to capitalise on good starts.

    Tonight they have. They might have had two.

    Manchester United are settling into the game now but Leeds have something to hold onto.

    Sion: Looking so so poor without Casemiro. Only took a minute of no midfield protection and composure for us to concede. Zero build up play without him and Eriksen either. Not sure what the players are doing out there so far

    Dean: I say it every week, Willy Gnonto is the bargain of the season, what a player, what a future, no fear in him.

    Another home chance. This time Marcel Sabitzer drills a shot just wide from 20 yards. Getting better.

    Big chance to the Red Devils. Leeds give it away this time and Diogo Dalot feeds Bruno Fernandes down the right. He crosses and Alejandro Garnacho has time at the back post to bring it down and pick his spot. Sadly that spot is just wide. He should have hit the target from here.

    Manchester United give the ball away again but this time Wilfried Gnonto and Patrick Bamford's give-and-go doesn't have the same impact.

    That has sparked a decent spell of possession from the Red Devils, although they end up back in their own half.

    First chance to the hosts and it's the Manchester United newbie.

    Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez can't get proper shots away and it lands to Marcel Sabitzer, who volleys over from near the penalty spot.

    Manchester United have a free-kick on the left. Can they do something with it? They haven't got started at all.
