Tottenham Hotspur will be glad to go back home for their Round 10 Premier League match against Manchester United. The two sides are just a point apart in the league standings, hosts Spurs with 15 points in sixth place and United seventh on 14 points. Spurs returned to winning ways in the last game, beating Burnley 1-0 in the League Cup after two straight losses. That was their third win in five matches and all the wins have been with one-goal margins. They need some stability now after an on-and-off run so far, losing three of their last five matches in the league. Spurs have three wins in four home league matches this season and kept two clean sheets, including one against Manchester City. In this clash, both teams have scored in all the last five meetings. Last season, Spurs beat United 6-1 in a corresponding fixture.

Manchester United are at their lowest after the 5-0 loss at home to Liverpool. This will be another tough game for them as they seek redemption against a side that needs the same. United have two wins in the last five matches but their main weakness has been in defence; in the last three games alone, they have conceded 11 goals. They have no clean sheet in the last 10 games and all season they’ve managed just one, which also accounts for them being the poorest defensively in the top eight, having let in 15 goals. Each of their last five matches has produced over 2.5 goals and their lengthy unbeaten away run was finally broken in their last trip, at Leicester City. Going to this game, Paul Pogba is suspended after picking a red card against Liverpool, while Raphael Varane is still out injured.
