Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United Match Preview
Tottenham Hotspur head into this clash on the back of a disappointing result in their last encounter against Chelsea. The Europa League winners delivered a lacklustre showing as they were beaten 1-0 by the FIFA Club World Cup winners.
However, there has been improvement in the side since the arrival of Thomas Frank in the summer, with the team currently sixth on the EPL standings, although they are level on points as the Red Devils (17).

Manchester United, meanwhile, were held to a 2-2 draw by struggling Nottingham Forest in their last outing, ending their winning streak. The 20-time league champions have improved under their Portuguese manager Ruben Amorim and have moved up to eighth in the standings, bouncing back from a poor start to the season.
The Red Devils finished 15th last season following a dismal campaign and will be looking to extend their unbeaten run, although they face a Spurs side that defeated them four times in the 2024-25 campaign.

Player to Watch: Bryan Mbeumo (Manchester United)
Cameroon winger Bryan Mbeumo has been one of the best performers in the league since moving to Old Trafford in the summer.
