This weekend, Tottenham Hotspur host Manchester United in what promises to be an exciting Premier League clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Both teams are level on points heading into the game, making every point crucial.
Recent Form
Tottenham have had the upper hand in recent meetings, remaining unbeaten in their last seven encounters with Manchester United. However, their home form this season has been inconsistent, and they’ll be eager to turn their stadium into a fortress.
Manchester United have been more consistent recently, remaining unbeaten in their last four league games. Their away form has been mixed, but they will be determined to halt Tottenham’s recent streak against them.
Team News
Tottenham will be without several key players, including Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison, Lucas Bergvall, and Dominic Solanke. Doubts remain over Mohammed Kudus and Yves Bissouma.
Manchester United are missing Lisandro Martínez, which could affect their defensive stability. Both teams will need to adapt their line-ups carefully.
Key Points to Watch
- Home vs Away Form: Spurs need to improve at home, while United must translate their improved form into strong away performances.
- Attack vs Defence: Tottenham’s defence has been solid, but their attack has been inconsistent. United have created plenty of chances but must tighten their defence on the road.
- Psychological Edge: Spurs will draw confidence from recent victories over United, including their Europa League success.
Prediction
Expect a closely fought game. With both teams showing strengths and weaknesses, a 1-1 draw seems likely, though either side could snatch a win with a strong performance.
