Match Preview
A battle of two beleaguered sides headline’s Sunday’s action in the Premier League as Tottenham take on Manchester United.
The struggling pair occupy 14th and 13th in the table, having extraordinarily lost a combined 24 Premier League games so far this season.
Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou looks under most pressure right now having been dumped out of two cups within the space of four days last week, putting in a pair of worrying performances at Liverpool and Aston Villa.
They are back at home on Sunday afternoon but another defeat to an out-of-sorts United could prove fatal for Postecoglou’s future. The are without a win on home soil in the league since early November, losing five out of their last seven at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

United are hardly in a better place but manager Ruben Amorim is still being afforded slightly more time having only arrived in November. However, if results continue to be as poor as they have been, questions will only increase.
The Red Devils did beat Leicester in the FA Cup fourth round last time out but their Premier League form remains poor, having lost seven of their 13 league games since the Portuguese took over.
Spurs ran out 3-0 winners when two met at Old Trafford in September, while the North Londoners were also 4-3 winners when the two met in the Carabao Cup in December during a chaotic encounter.

Tottenham v Manchester United Prediction
This duo played out a 4-3 in December that was as chaotic as it was entertaining and both teams’ confidence has plummetted to lower depths even since then.
With neither defence showing much improvement, we could be in for another high-scoring affair.
