Tottenham v Manchester United: match preview

Tottenham v Manchester United
Tottenham v Manchester United: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Illustration: Guardian

Manchester United’s place in the top four looks secure for the time being so a tepid draw – like many of those produced since being thrashed 6-1 by Tottenham – against José Mourinho’s side would suffice. Spurs on the other hand need a win to catch up and Mourinho will be eager to stick it to his former employers. A full complement of defenders will certainly help the endeavour after last week’s misfire against Newcastle. Graham Searles
