Stoke City 2-2 Manchester United: Premier League as it happened

Full-time: Stoke City 2-2 Manchester United

Three minutes of time added on.

Martial drops Diouf with an outrageous piece of skill before lifting a cross in from the left. It breaks to Mata on the edge of the box who wins a free kick for his side.

Two goals from this man could secure Stoke a point.

Jesse Lingard has now come on to replace Mkhitaryan. United are six minutes away from dropping their first points of the season.

A great chance for United to take the lead again! Martial lifts a wicked ball into Lukaku from the left but the Belgian lifts it over the bar.

And here's another chance for Stoke with Saido Berahino on for Jese.

Juan Mata has also come on to replace Herrera.

Here comes that change, Martial, who has come off the bench and scored twice this season, replaces Rashford for the final 20 minutes.

Anthony Martial is warming up down the touchline. His side have looked a little flat since Stoke's second went in.

Not bad from Valencia. Receiving the ball from 35 yards out, he scampers past two Stoke challenges and shoots from the edge of the box, but drags his effort just wide of the post.

United have let their goalkeeper down big time there. That save from De Gea was out of this world and moments later, it is made to count for nothing.

And we are level again! Moments after a frankly ridiculous save from David de Gea to deny Jese, Choupo-Moting is on the scene at the back post to nod home the resulting corner.

Goal! Stoke City 2-2 Manchester United (Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, 62)

Just a reminder, United will return to the top of the table tonight if this result stays the same after Manchester City moved to the summit after thrashing Liverpool earlier today.

That's six assists in four games for Mkhitaryan now.

In a flash, United take the lead! Stoke shoot themselves in the foot despite breaking on what looked to be an initially promising counter, but Allen loses possession with Darmian dispossessing him. The Italian moves forward and finds Mkhitaryan who threads a wonderful pass through for Lukaku. Butland does brilliantly to stop his first effort, but the Belgian sweeps home his fourth goal for the club at the second time of asking.

Stoke string a neat move together that almost frees Jese but Darmian gets across the Spaniard to force it wide. Shaqiri scampers across to get the loose ball but bends a poor cross straight out of play.

A Stoke corner causes a bit of trouble but United manage to clear. Pogba is an inch from freeing Rashford in behind the the Stoke line but a timely sliding challenge from Wimmer prevents him from breaking free.

United try a couple of different corner routines which don't work out, so Pogba tries his luck from range, forcing a fairly comfortable save from Butland.

Martins Indi forces a corner with his first touch, diverting Mkhitaryan's cross away from goal.

United get us back underway for the second half.

Stoke will make a change at the start of this half with Bruno Martins Indi coming on for Cameron.

Rashford might not have known an awful lot about it, but his goal levelled United right before half-time.

Half-time: Stoke City 1-1 Manchester United

United have an equaliser straight away! From a corner kick, Matic gets an important flick on to Pogba, whose header on goal comes off the back of Rashford's head and into the back of the net! Strange one, but they'll take that.

Stoke have had to absorb an awful amount of pressure but they have taken the lead just before half time! Fletcher spreads play out to Diouf on the right who has been given acres of space by Darmian. He swings a peach of a ball in for Choupo-Moting who steals a yard on Bailly to fire into the net.

Stoke surrender possession and Mkhitaryan can slide a clever ball through for Rashford. You would fancy the United youngster to beat most centre halves in the game in a race to the ball but in this case, he is up against Zouma, one of the fastest around, who just about manages to get across and clear the danger.

Pogba wins a free kick out on the right after a push from Fletcher but its delivery from Matic is abysmal.

Valencia again does brilliantly down the right, this time combining with Herrera who clips a ball over the top and into his path before pinging the ball into the six yard area but it just evades Lukaku.

Half an hour gone at the Britannia and it has been pretty comfortable for United. They are haven't broken Stoke down yet, but are getting closer.

Valencia combines neatly with Lukaku and the United full-back fires a great ball across goal from the right. Zouma gets across and manages to sort his feet out just in time to force it wide.

Close from Rashford! Inside the box, Zouma stands off the United forward and gives him the chance to guide a shot through his legs and on goal, only for Butland to deny him again. Lukaku is onto the rebound but he is offside.

Shaqiri lets fly with a shot from nearly 30 yards out, forcing a pretty standard save out of De Gea.

United are cranking up the pressure again. Bailly turns playmaker with a superb pass to free Rashford who has broken the Stoke offside trap, only to see his low effort saved by Butland.

Jese opens up the pitch and plays a tantalising ball through on the left for Pieters to chase onto but Valencia just about gets there first, otherwise the full-back was in.

Lukaku forces Butland into a save but the flag is up for offside after Wimmer stepped up in time to catch the Belgian out.

Herrera threads a clever ball through to pick out Lukaku's run down the inside right channel. He cuts the ball back across goal looking for Pogba but Stoke manage to scramble it away for a corner.

Choupo-Moting does well down the left, slipping inside Valencia who had committed and lifting a deep cross in for Jese. Darmian has to be careful as he watches it fall out of the sky towards him with the Spaniard lurking but deals with it well to clear the danger.

United have settled down and are dominating possession at the moment; looking failt comfortable.

And another chance for Stoke! Jese breaks in behind the United defence, coming in from the right, but drags his effort just wide of De Gea's far post.

It's been an electric start here. Choupo-Moting almost creeps in down the inside right, forcing de Gea to come out and make an important block before United race down the other end to launch their first attack of the game. Rashford gets in behind the Stoke backline after a mistake from Cameron and manages to shift the ball across goal for Lukaku, but Zouma gets a crucial touch on it it to knock it out of the Belgian's path.

And Stoke City get us underway at a bouncing Britannia Stadium.

Every time Jose Mourinho has won his first four games of the season, he sides have gone onto win the Premier League title. Can he make it 12 points from a possible 12 tonight? Kick off is five minutes away.

Marouane Fellaini is not in the United squad this afternoon, he's returned to the UK with a minor injury problem that rules him out this evening.

Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has overcome an injury and is fit to start for Stoke this afternoon in support of Jese upfront. Kevin Wimmer comes in for his Potters debut in place of the injured Ryan Shawcross, with Darren Fletcher captain in what is just his fourth appearance for the club, against his former employers.

Jose Mourinho makes three changes to the side that beat Leicester just before the international break. Ander Herrera comes into replace his fellow Spaniard Juan Mata with Matteo Darmian in at left-back ahead of Daley Blind. Marcus Rashford gets the nod ahead of Anthony Martial on the left of the attack.

BREAKING: Ander Herrera returns to the Manchester United starting XI

The strength of United's squad will get its first thorough tests in September with the club's return to the Champions League and a League Cup third round tie against Burton Albion waiting for them in the coming weeks.

Mourinho named almost identical starting XIs in his first three games this season – with the only exception being Anthony Martial's selection ahead of Marcus Rashford in the 2-0 win over Leicester City last time out.

The United boss expects that to change however and anticipates every member of his squad getting game time in the coming weeks with the return of the Champions League looming. Mourinho said:

Team news: Stoke City

Shawcross' absence could open the door for Kevin Wimmer to make his debut for the club following his arrival from Tottenham.

Striker Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is also a doubt after picking up a hamstring injury in Cameroon's World Cup qualifying defeat to Nigeria.

Team news: Stoke City

The Potters will be without captain Ryan Shawcross for the visit of his former club after the centre-back suffered a back injury in training. The 29-year-old, who agreed a new contract last month, has tweaked ligaments in that area although tge fitness concern is not linked to the back problems the England defender has previously suffered from.

Team news: Manchester United

Michael Carrick could be involved today after arriving at the Bet365 Stadium a little earlier. The evergreen midfielder has not made the match day squad in the league this season.

Team news: Manchester United

Jose Mourinho has the exact same group of players to choose from as he did before the international break with no new injuries to report. Ashley Young and Luke Shaw are still working their way back to full fitness after lengthy layoffs while Marcos Rojo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic remain absent with long-term injuries.

Three wins from three. 10 goals scored. None conceded. It's all going rather well for Jose Mourinho. His Manchester United side have thoroughly hit the ground running this season, easing past their opponents with a swagger and confidence of genuine Premier League title contenders.

While the manager's penchant for success in his second season has so many already dreaming of a first league title in five years, it is worth remembering United were three for three this time last year, before they were brought crashing back down to earth after a home defeat to Manchester City.

Stoke City will be in the mood for inflicting similar damage, having already beaten Arsenal on their own turf this season.

Stick around, all your team news is on the way.
