High-Flying Manchester United Look To End Barren Run Against Tottenham Hotspur

The Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur match should make for an entertaining display because of how the two sides are both eager to put up a thrilling spectacle at the Theatre of Dreams to get three important points in the bag.

Manchester United have now won their last three matches under Michael Carrick and are flying high, having defeated Manchester City and Liverpool in the same period.

Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, are still reeling with inconsistency under Thomas Frank, having failed to record a victory from their last six Premier League matches.

Spurs did show spirit and determination in their recent 2-2 draw against Manchester City, and will look to torment another Manchester side in this upcoming clash at Old Trafford.

Manchester United are winless in their last seven matches against Tottenham Hotspur, who defeated them four times in the 2024/25 season, and the Red Devils are out to get revenge on the London side to further their hopes of a top-four finish.

Spirited Bruno Fernandes Determined To Be Manchester United’s Big-Game Hero Again

Bruno Fernandes has really been the star of the show for Manchester United in the 2025/26 season, providing two assists in their recent 3-2 win over Fulham.

The 31-year-old midfielder now has five goals and 12 assists in the 2025/26 Premier League, more assists than any other player in the division.

Fernandes will now look to maintain his impressive form against Spurs and continue his run of assists after grabbing six assists from his last five games.

The Portuguese magician will look to be smart with his deliveries into the box to create big chances, but also look to get on the end of opportunities smartly to help the Red Devils get a big win over the Lilywhites.

Rejuvenated Dominic Solanke Aiming To Push Tottenham Hotspur To Success

Dominic Solanke has successfully returned to the Tottenham Hotspur side after missing a large chunk of the 2025/26 season because of an injury.

The striker scored an impressive brace in Spurs’ 2-2 draw against Manchester City, which included an unorthodox but stunning scorpion kick to showcase how vital he can be in the final third for the Lilywhites.

Solanke will now look to be a problem for the Manchester United defenders, utilising his movement and physical prowess to bully them.

The 28-year-old would also need to finish off chances ruthlessly in the upcoming clash to get a big win for the Lilywhites and finally help end their winless run in the Premier League.
