Good morning and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of the Premier League clash between Middlesbrough and Manchester United at the Riverside Stadium. The hosts, without a win in 10 games, parted company with manager Aitor Karanka on Thursday and today represents an opportunity for caretaker boss Steve Agnew to stake a claim for the job. But it won't be easy as Manchester United look to get back to winning ways and keep their hopes of a top-four finish alive.

STAT: Boro have only recorded two points when they have gone behind in the Premier League this season.

37'

Ramirez does well to deliver a cross into the penalty area, it takes a ricochet off Fellaini and Boro have another corner. Better from the hosts.

35'

Lovely football from Boro who at last cause the visitors a problem at the back! De Roon is left unmarked in a wide area, he cuts the ball back for Negredo inside the box but it's slightly behind his team mate and United clear.

34'

Smalling, under pressure from Bernardo, manages to get a head to the corner delivery but he can't find the target.

33'

Young drops a shoulder, cuts onto his weaker foot and feeds Lingard who has a shot from the edge of the penalty area, it's deflected and United have a corner.

31'

It was too easy for Fellaini. He was the only player in blue inside the Boro penalty area when the cross came in but he still managed to get away from his marker. Steve Agnew will be concerned with how poor his team have looked defensively.

GOAL! United are ahead, Fellaini spins away at the back post and heads in from Young's cross! Dreadful defending from Boro.

The visitors get in behind the back of the Boro defence yet again but they can't pick the right pass and Downing does well to tidy up for the hosts.

Indeed.

27'

United come forward once more with Valencia breaking into the Boro penalty area but his cross is behind all of his team mates and the hosts can clear.

26'

Downing whips in a cross with De Roon picking up a position at the back post but the former Liverpool winger puts too much on the delivery and it's out for a United goal-kick.

25'

YELLOW CARD: Jones is the first player of the afternoon to be booked after a foul on Ramirez.

Three big, big saves from Valdes who must feel he has a point to prove to his former employers today. Could it be one of those days for United?

22'

CHANCES! A fantastic double save from Valdes denies United!

First Mata picks out Rashford with a pass across the face of goal but Valdes does brilliantly to save with his feet.

The rebound falls to Valencia whose shot from a tight angle is palmed away to safety by the former United no 1.

21'

Downing is caught sleeping as Rashford is released behind the Boro defence, he gets to the byline and tries to pick out a team mate but Clayton reads the danger and puts the ball out for a corner.

20'

The cross is sent into the heart of the Boro penalty area where Fellaini rises highest but the former Everton man can't direct his header on goal.

19'

Lingard and Rashford link up well but the latter is crowded out in the penalty area and forces a United corner.

18'

Fabio makes a run from wing-back onto a Ramirez pass but he's beaten for pace by Smalling who passes back for De Gea.
