Manchester United vs Tottenham
England Premier League.
Date: Sunday, 11th December, 2016.
Kick-Off: 14:15 UK
Venue: Old Trafford, Manchester.
Manchester United will been aiming to close the gap between them and Tottenham to 3 points as they welcome them to Theatre of Dreams Old Trafford on Sunday Afternoon. However, the Spurs also will be hopeful of opening up a 9 point lead over the Red Devils.
Spurs have been good this season, they have lost just once in League this campaign. They will come fresh off a 3-1 home win in the mid-week Champions League game against CSKA Moscow on Wednesday. Also they will have gotten more rest than their host who played at Ukraine on Thursday.
The Old Trafford outfit will enter the game from a 7-game unbeaten run, with 4 wins and 3 draws. However, Jose Mourinho’s side haven’t won a home game since defeating Leicester City in September. They will need to win this game to pace with their rivals in top table and this promises to be an entertaining one.
Manchester United vs Tottenham: Head to Head Statistics
The Red Devils record against Spurs is alarming, they have twice more than Spurs in their previous 154 meetings. United have won 80 games against Spurs, while Spurs have won 35 games with the remaining 39 drawn. At Old Trafford, United are superior with 56 wins over Spurs who have won 11 times. Their last 5 meetings have been shared equally, with 2 wins each to both teams and a draw.
Manchester United vs Tottenham: Prediction
The game will surely be a tough one with the two teams being in top form. However, the home team may be plagued with fatigue as they just returned from a trip to Ukraine. We expect United to play more defensively and Tottenham to be the attacking team despite being the visiting side. Also the game is expected to feature few goals in it and a narrow win for the home side.
