Manchester United vs Tottenham: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds

Manchester United host Tottenham in the Premier League - (ES Composite)

Tottenham visit Manchester United this weekend as Thomas Frank looks to extend his four-match unbeaten run.

Spurs remain 14th in the Premier League but have seen something of an uptick in recent weeks, coming from behind to draw 2-2 with Manchester City last time out.

That is in spite of continuing off-pitch troubles, with captain Cristian Romero hitting out at the club’s perceived poor squad building on social media this week.

United, meanwhile, are in fine form, having won three on the spin against Man City, Arsenal and Fulham under new head coach Michael Carrick.

He will hope to build on that form after a quiet January transfer window, where the club made no new signings.

Man United vs Tottenham team news

It is not entirely clear whether Dominic Solanke will be able to feature for Spurs. He recently returned from a lengthy lay-off following ankle surgery, but limped off midway through the City draw.

“He's not there fitness-wise where he should be, because he's been out for so long. And we've been, in a way, a little bit forced to play him,” said Frank at full-time.

The same is true of Micky van de Ven, out for a week with a minor injury, though Frank is confident he can feature at the Theatre of Dreams.

Romero and Djed Spence are both expected to feature having recovered from illness and a calf injury, respectively.

Their returns will be a boost, but Frank will still have myriad absentees for the trip. Among the longer-term casualties are Kevin Danso, Richarlison, Pedro Porro, Lucas Bergvall, Rodrigo Bentancur, Mohammed Kudus, Ben Davies, Dejan Kulusevski, and James Maddison.

Deadline Day signing James Wilson, who arrived on loan from Hearts, is not expected to feature having joined up with the Under-21s.

Carrick’s injury worries pale in comparison to Frank’s. Patrick Dorgu remains out with a hamstring injury sustained minutes after he scored a stunner against Arsenal last month. Matthijs de Ligt is also out for the foreseeable with a back injury sustained in November.

Mason Mount may feature, though, after he missed the win over Fulham with a knock.

Man United vs Tottenham prediction

Tottenham have done well to battle for strong results in recent weeks despite their mounting injuries, but their luck may well run out at Old Trafford.

United have been a team transformed under Carrick, rampaging to wins over two of Europe’s finest sides in Arsenal and City in recent outings.

Facing an injury-ravaged Spurs, the Red Devils will fully expect to make it four wins on the bounce.

Man United to win, 2-1.
