Sitting fifth in the Premier League table, Manchester United have 16 points from nine matches. They have seven points less than third-placed Spurs but have also played a match less than the visitors. United saw their three-game winning run in all competitions come to an end at the weekend during a goalless draw against Newcastle United. Meanwhile, Tottenham are heading into this match on the back of winning four of their last five games in the league. They are level on points with second-placed Manchester City and are only four points shy of leaders Arsenal.
Manchester United have the bulk of injury concerns going into this clash. The most notable one is the situation surrounding Christian Eriksen on whether he will recover from illness to face his former club. If he cannot make it, Scott McTominay, who returns from a suspension, can take up his spot. Anthony Martial is also a doubt for this match, while Martin Dubravka will be available for this fixture. However, they will reportedly miss Harry Maguire, Donny van de Beek and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
In this fixture last year, Cristiano Ronaldo netted an impressive hat-trick to guide Manchester United to a thrilling 3-2 win. However, it remains to be seen if he can retain his spot in the Starting XI following his recent dry spell. Marcus Rashford could replace him up front but the Englishman has also been misfiring in the last couple of matches. On the other hand, Richarlison is set to miss the match for Tottenham and Dejan Kulusevski is an injury doubt. Besides, Emerson Royal will miss this match due to his suspension.
Manchester United possible line-up: De Gea, Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Malacia, McTominay, Casemiro, Fernandes, Antony, Rashford, Ronaldo
Tottenham Hotspur possible line-up: Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Doherty, Hojbjerg, Bissouma, Bentancur, Perisic, Son, Kane
