Man United vs Tottenham Preview

  • Tournament: Premier League
  • Date: Sunday, Sep 29
  • Kick-off Time: 04:30 pm GMT
  • Venue: Old Trafford, England

Tottenham will travel to Man United in their 6th of the 2024/25 Premier League season at Old Trafford. The Red Devils will aim to make amends after back-to-back draws in both domestic and European competitions.

Hosts Man United have had a sluggish start to the new campaign and have picked up only seven points in their last five matches of the campaign. Furthermore, United have lost seven of their last 19 Premier League home games and would be hopeful to secure the crucial three points.

Meanwhile, Tottenham sustained a 3-0 win over Qarabag in their last game but have been quite inconsistent in the Premier League. They survived an early scare to end a two-game losing run in the Premier League with a 3-1 victory over Brentford in the last domestic tie.

Key Players to Watch in Man United vs Tottenham

The Argentine has been in fine form since the start of the campaign, managing four goals and three assists in eight games across all competitions. Garnacho has started each of the club’s opening seven games of the season in all competitions and has been the main reason for Marcus Rashford’s absence in the first-team setup this year.

Dominic Solanke (Tottenham)

The 27-year-old striker made his long-awaited move to Tottenham Hotspur in the summer and has made a strong start for the North London giants. Solanke has bagged two goals and an assist in five games across all competitions.

Man United vs Tottenham Prediction

The hosts are favourites for this tie despite their lacklustre start to the new Premier League campaign. Erik ten Hag’s were held to a 1-1 draw by Crystal Palace last time out and a run of three games with a victory would pile a huge pressure on the Dutch manager. The Red Devils had a mixed start to their campaign winning three, losing three and drawing two of their eight matches across all competitions.

As for Tottenham, they are yet to win away from home this year and had an underwhelming start to the new season. Ange Postecoglou’s side managed a praiseworthy 3-0 win over Qarabag in their last game but they managed only seven points from their opening five matches in the English top-flight.
