Ange against Erik do battle
The biggest match of the Premier League weekend takes place on Sunday as Man Utd host Tottenham at Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag and Ange Postecoglou would have wished for better starts to their respective campaigns, but this match presents a good opportunity for one side to kickstart their season.
Match Preview
Man Utd Recent Form
Man Utd are unbeaten in four games in all competitions but they are still reeling from consecutive losses against Brighton and Liverpool a month ago.
That unbeaten run doesn’t tell the full story, as they are coming off two disappointing draws against Crystal Palace in the Premier League and Twente in the Europa League.
Man Utd Injury News
Man Utd are still missing Luke Shaw, Leny Yoro and Tyrell Malacia but Victor Lindelöf could return to feature for the first time this season after a toe issue.
Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount have recovered from recent injuries and are free for selection.
Last Man Utd Lineup
Here’s how Man Utd lined up against Twente.
Tottenham Recent Form
At the beginning of September, Tottenham suffered two damaging losses in a row against Newcastle and in the North London Derby against Arsenal.
They have bounced back from those defeats, though, winning three in a row against Coventry in the League Cup, Brentford in the Premier League and Qarabag in the Europa League.
Tottenham Injury News
Spurs have a new, major injury concern for the game as Heung-min Son had to be withdrawn against Qarabag due to a minor knock. He’ll be assessed before kick off.
Wilson Odobert and Richarlison are also out.
Last Tottenham Lineup
Here’s how Tottenham lined up against Qarabag.
Man Utd vs Tottenham – who is the referee and VAR?
Referee: Chris Kavanagh
Assistants: Lee Betts, Richard West
Fourth official: Craig Pawson
VAR: Peter Bankes
Assistant VAR: Simon Long
Man Utd – Player To Watch
Bruno Fernandes has come under criticism from fans and pundits for his recent performances, to the point where Erik ten Hag had to publicly come out and support his player. The pressure is on him to perform.
Tottenham – Player To Watch
Due to injuries and form, it has taken a while for Dominic Solanke’s Spurs career to get going, but he has two goals and an assist in his last two games so things are looking more positive for him.
Man Utd vs Tottenham – Prediction
The form of both teams means that Ten Hag and Postecoglou would both take a draw here and both sides are relatively even on paper. It should be an entertaining one, though, as United-Spurs games usually are.
Scoreline prediction – Man Utd 2-2 Tottenham
