Goal!

Kostoulas
IT'S ON!!! Milner's corner is headed in by Babis Kostoulas for his first Albion goal! Five to play, one goal in it!

SEVEN MINUTES ADDED TIME

88'

KADIOGLU RANGER TIPPED AWAY

That's a terrific strike from Kadioglu. Welbeck finds the Turkish international on the left and he lamps it towards the top left, but Lammens gets a strong hand on it to put it behind for a corner!

Stef Tzimas replaces Mats Wieffer.

ALBION IN THE ASCENDANCY

That goal for Albion has shocked United and they're sitting in with Albion pouring forward. Minteh cuts in and gets his shot wrong as he bends it wide. But Albion smell an opportunity here.
75'

WATSON'S STRIKE SAVED BY LAMMENS

That's a good effort from Watson on the edge of the box, plenty of power behind it, keeps it low, but it's gathered well by Lammens.

Goal!

Welbeck
DANNY PULLS ONE BACK! Minteh is fouled by Dorgu 25 yards from the United goal. Welbeck takes the resulting free-kick and bends it into the top corner! We're back in this with 15 to play.
71'

VERBRUGGEN KEEPS IT AT THREE

Albion give it away on the edge of their own box and Mbeumo tries to fire into the bottom left corner, but Verbruggen tips it onto the post!
61'
RoundArrow

Goal

Mbeumo fires into the bottom right corner. Georginio looks as if he's fouled in the build up. Unsure if VAR will intervene.
60'
RoundArrow

Substitution

Triple Albion change. James Milner, Tommy Watson and Diego Gomez replace Carlos Baleba, Yasin Ayari and Maxim De Cuyper.
56'

MINTEH CLOSE TO PULLING ONE BACK

An excellent attack there from Albion ends with Minteh crossing in from the right, it's just beyond Welbeck in the middle and flies an inch wide of the bottom left corner!
48'

BART MAKES A BIG SAVE

United pass it around in the Albion box looking to pry open the defence. Fernandes eventually gets a shot away from seven yards, but Verbruggen somehow gets his arm in the way of it!

Half-Time

Albion go in at the break 2-0 down.
45'+1'

GEORGINIO FLUFFS IT

de ligt clears only as far as De Cuyper 20 yards out. The Belgium international volleys it into the ground and Georginio is there to meet it at close range, but completely misses the shot.
44'

WASTEFUL FROM SESKO

The striker is in down the left of the Albion box but his first touch takes him away from goal and his following strike is wide of the target. Poor in the circumstances.
39'
RoundArrow

Yellow Card

Mbeumo spins Dunk in the middle of the park and for a moment it looks as if United are in, but Baleba takes the hit for his team and trips the former Brentford man. Yellow card.
38'

DUNK HEADS OVER

That's a great opportunity to pull one back. De Cuyper's corner finds the head of Dunk in the middle, but he gets under it and sends it wide of goal. He's only a few yards out.

OWN GOAL!

Casemiro
Casemiro's strike from range takes a big deflection off the back of Yasin Ayari, wrong footing Bart Verbruggen and finds the bottom left corner. The shot might even be heading wide. It's a really unfortunate one.
30'

SENSATIONAL SKILL FROM MINTEH

Minteh plays a one-two with Georginio and takes a lovely touch past Yoro. Shaw and Fernandes slide in which Yankuba manages to ride, but the ball gets away from him and Lammens gathers. If he'd poked that home we're talking about a goal that's out of this world.

Goal

Cunha curls into the bottom right corner from the edge of the box.
17'

GOOD HANDS FROM VERBRUGGEN

Cunha gets away from Dunk and leathers a shot at goal from 20 yards, but Verbruggen is down to his left to keep it out with two outstretched hands. This is an open game.
15'

HUGE CHANCE FOR WELBECK

Georginio gets away from Casemiro on the left and pulls the ball back into the box. Welbeck hits it with his left, but it's straight into the hands of Lammens. Watching it back, Fernandes runs into the back of the striker as he takes his shot. It clearly stops him getting away a clean strike.
10'

BALEBA DRAGS WIDE

Ayari is fouled by Yoro on the right flank. De Cuyper takes the resulting free-kick, crossing into the box, it's headed to Kadioglu on the edge of the box who sees his effort hit someone in a crowd of bodies before Baleba has a go from 20 yards, dragging it wide by a few yards. Albion have sparked into life.
7'

MINTEH SO, SO CLOSE TO THE OPENER

Welbeck spins de Ligt and he's away down the right. Minteh bursts through the middle and Danny finds him in the box, but he can't direct his first time effort towards goal and it's behind for a goal-kicK! Had he scored, VAR might have ruled Minteh offside, looks like he was beyond Welbeck when the pass was played. It's marginal.
4'

CUNHA RIFLES INTO THE SIDE NETTING

That's a bit sloppy from Albion as Baleba and Dunk aren't quite on the same wavelength as the skipper attempts to pass to the Frenchman but it's given away. United attack, it's played down the right of the box for Cunha, but from a very tight angle he smashes it into the side netting.
1'

FERNANDES HEADS WIDE

Mbeumo crosses in from the left and Fernandes heads it comfortably wide of goal from 12 yards. Early warning for Albion.

UNDERWAY

The players take the knee, before Mbeumo gets the game underway.

THE TEAMS ARE OUT

Fabian Hurzeler has made one change to the team that beat Newcastle last weekend, as Maxim De Cuyper replaces Diego Gomez.

HURZELER ON UNITED

"I think they play a more direct, more vertical style. They play more long balls trying to target [Benjamin] Sesko, going with a lot of players for the second ball, trying to win the second ball and then continue on their wings, to try to attack the box with a lot of deep runs. "They have a really good individual quality in their team. They can change the game with one action. Every player from them, especially in the front, can decide the game with one action. All of their players have great individual quality and therefore they're always a danger to us. "We have to be alert for 90 minutes, no matter if you're in possession, out of possession or a set piece for us or against us, because they can score within every phase. I think that makes them so dangerous, this change of game."
