Manchester United vs Stoke City, LIVE: Jose Mourinho's side look to narrow gap at top of the Premier League table

Manchester United will be looking to keep their faint title hopes alive when they host Stoke City at Old Trafford to round off the weekend's Premier League action.

Following Manchester City's first defeat of the season at Liverpool on Sunday, victory for the Red Devils would narrow the gap to their local rivals down to 12 points.

Stoke City arrive at Old Trafford having appointed Paul Lambert as their new manager, but the former Aston Villa manager will only be watching from the stands as caretaker boss Eddie Niedzwiecki takes charge.
