Manchester United
The "Red Devils," despite having a strong squad, have struggled to realize their potential. Last season, United finished in a disappointing eighth place in the Premier League but managed to secure European football by winning the FA Cup.
Based on early results, it seems that United will once again be battling for a Europa League spot at best, as their performances haven't suggested they're in contention for the title or a Champions League spot. After five rounds, United sit 11th in the table with just seven points. In their last league outing, they played out a goalless draw away to Crystal Palace. Midweek, United hosted Twente in the Europa League, also drawing 1-1.
Tottenham Hotspur
Spurs missed out on a Champions League spot to Aston Villa last season, and their start to this campaign has been equally rocky. In their first four matches, Tottenham managed just one win, against Everton, while losing to Newcastle and Arsenal and drawing away at Leicester.
However, recent results suggest that Tottenham have found some rhythm. They defeated Coventry 2-1 in the League Cup and followed that up with a 3-1 Premier League win over Brentford. This week, Spurs confidently started their Europa League campaign, thrashing Qarabag 3-0 at home despite playing with 10 men from the 8th minute.
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Eriksen, Mainoo; Diallo, Fernandes, Garnacho; Zirkzee
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Kulusevski, Bentancur, Maddison; Johnson, Solanke, Son
Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
*Manchester United have a good historical record against Tottenham Hotspur and have won 96 out of the 201 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Tottenham Hotspur's 54 victories.
*Manchester United have defeated Tottenham Hotspur on 24 occasions at home in the Premier League - only Arsenal have defeated an opponent at home more often in the competition.
*After a run of four consecutive defeats against Manchester United in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur are unbeaten in their last three such games in the competition.
*Manchester United have lost seven of their last 19 matches at home in the Premier League and suffered a 3-0 defeat against Liverpool in their previous home game.
Prediction: Manchester United 1-1 Tottenham Hotspur
While Tottenham only boast a paltry three away wins in the Premier League over the past 10 months, the Lilywhites have won a staggering 28 points from losing positions since the start of last season, second only to Manchester City's 31. Therefore, even if Ten Hag's wildly inconsistent troops can draw first blood, they will surely be pegged back in a similar vein to midweek, as Spurs leave Old Trafford with a share of the spoils for the third season running.
