Team news

Manchester United news

After missing Sunday's derby defeat to Manchester City due to injury, Cristiano Ronaldo and Edinson Cavani were both back in training on Tuesday. Whoever is in good enough shape to begin will do so.
Despite the absence of Ronaldo and Cavani, Marcus Rashford was used as a substitute against City, but he should replace Anthony Elanga on the right wing against Tottenham.
After starting up front versus City, Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba should return to their central midfield positions.
After missing the 4-1 loss to City at the weekend, Ralf Rangnick would hope to welcome back Raphael Varane and Luke Shaw from COVID-19. If both are in good enough shape, they will begin.
Diogo Dalot has not started any of United's last four games, but he has a good chance of starting this one in lieu of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who has struggled.

Tottenham news

Ryan Sessegnon was injured in Monday's 5-0 triumph against Everton and is a significant worry for this weekend's match against Manchester United. Sergio Reguilon is ready to step in as a stand-in.
Cristian Romero was also replaced against Everton, but it was most likely to avoid a second yellow card for the fiery defender.
With Oliver Skipp still due to miss out for Tottenham, Antonio Conte is unlikely to make any more changes, with Reguilon perhaps replacing the injured Sessegnon.
After a string of impressive performances, Matt Doherty has surpassed Emerson Royal as the first-choice right wing-back.

Match facts

In Man United's last five Premier League home games, there have been under 2.5 goals scored.
Over 2.5 goals have been scored in each of Manchester United's last four home encounters versus Tottenham in all competitions.

Manchester United vs Tottenham prediction

Manchester United is in disarray following their 4-1 loss to Manchester City last weekend. Ralf Rangnick's team played well in the first half, but then fell apart after halftime and appeared to give up at the finish.

Tottenham thrashed Everton 5-0 on Monday night, with the Toffees unable to register a single attempt on target. For the first time since December, they are attempting to make it three Premier League victories in a row.

Conte has won four and lost two of his previous six meetings with Manchester United as a manager, and considering Rangnick's collapse, it's difficult to see anything other than a Tottenham victory at Old Trafford.

Prediction: Manchester United 1-3 Tottenham
