Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur

, KO: 16:30 Sep 29, 2024, Old Trafford
Tottenham Hotspur

Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur go toe-to-toe at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

The Red Devils were unable to build on their 3-0 success at Southampton a fortnight ago when playing out a drab 0-0 stalemate with Crystal Palace last Saturday.

Erik ten Hag’s team have since been held to a 1-1 draw by FC Twente in the Europa League at Old Trafford, piling more more pressure on the United boss in the process.

Therefore, the Manchester giants will be looking to use Sunday’s tussle with Tottenham as a jolt to kick-start their season. 

As for Spurs, they steadied the ship with a morale-boosting 3-1 win over Brentford last weekend, on an afternoon where my Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Bet Builder landed.

Ange Postecoglou’s side picked up another victory in midweek after they kicked off their Europa League campaign with a comfortable 3-0 win over Qarabag.

How the bookies view it: Red Devils to reign supreme

Despite winning just one of their last four Premier League matches, Manchester United are 5/4 favourites on Betano to claim top honours at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Tottenham are 17/10 (Betano) outsiders to triumph on their top-flight travels for the first time this term, while an all square affair is an unfancied 14/5 (Betano).

Head to head: Another shootout in store?

Two of the last three meetings between the sides have ended in a high-scoring 2-2 draw. The same scoreline on Sunday can be backed at a best price of 11/1 on Bet 365. 

Players to watch: Solanke hitting his stride?

Dominic Solanke has scored in each of his last two appearances for Tottenham following his club-record move from Bournemouth over the summer. The Spurs striker is 11/5 on UniBet to extend his scoring streak on Sunday.

Manchester United's Kobbie Mainoo is even-money (1/1) on Bet 365 to attempt just one shot during this game and that holds plenty of appeal given that the teenage sensation has tried his luck in each of his last two top-flight outings.

Predicted line-ups

Man United’s Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund both returned from injury against Twente in midweek but neither player is expected to get the nod from the off on Sunday. 

Tottenham will make the trip north without injured duo Richarlison and Wilson Odebert.

Man United: Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Ugarte, Mainoo; Diallo, Fernandes, Rashford; Zirkzee

Tottenham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Kulusevski, Bentancur, Maddison; Johnson, Solanke, Son

Anything else catch the eye?

There are no shortage of contenders and cases to be made in the player foul markets at Old Trafford on Sunday but I’m going to opt for Noussair Mazraoui and Rodrigo Bentancur each to commit a foul at 10/11 on Bet 365.

New Red Devils right-back Mazraoui gave away no fewer than four free-kicks against Crystal Palace last weekend, and the Moroccan had also fallen foul of the referee in his three Premier League appearances prior to that.

Meanwhile, tough-tackling Tottenham midfielder Bentancur has sinned at least once in all four of his top-flight outings this term, not to mention he committed a foul against Qarabag on Thursday night despite featuring for just 19 minutes as a substitute.
