Tottenham vs Manchester United Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

The oddsmakers have the visiting Manchester United as 2.38 favorites to walk away with the three points here. Those looking to back the home underdogs can get Tottenham at a price of 2.80 while the draw comes in at odds of 3.60. It’s also interesting to note that Manchester United have odds of 1.14 to finish in the top four while Tottenham come in at odds of 11.00 for a top four finish.

It’s been a tough two weeks for Tottenham fans. Their team conceded deep into stoppage time against Bournemouth in matchday 31 to lose 3-2 at home and would follow that up last weekend with one of the team’s worst losses in recent memory. Newcastle were rampant when they hosted Tottenham at St. James’ Park on Sunday, going up five goals in the first 20 minutes of play to ultimately win the match 6-1. The result would lead the Spurs’ brass to make yet another managerial change this season, replacing former interim head coach Cristian Stellini with ex-Tottenham midfielder Ryan Mason. Tottenham are now looking at only one victory in their last five matches, in a stretch where they have also conceded 14 goals. The hosts could also be in serious risk of losing out on their Europa League qualification spot as Liverpool and Brighton both have games in hand and can leapfrog Spurs if they are able to convert those into wins. 

Manchester United should come into this match in high spirits after their penalty shootout triumph over Brighton to set up a FA Cup final meeting with Manchester City. The result was a much needed boost after the Red Devils suffered a heavy 3-0 away loss to Sevilla in the match prior to exit the Europa League at the quarter-final stage. Despite losing only once in their last six matches, the recent goal scoring slump may come as a worry to some Manchester United fans. It’s the first time that Erik ten Hag’s side has been kept off the scoresheet in back-to-back matches all season. With that being said, United have still managed to win their last three on the trot in the Premier League. They managed to net five goals in those three matches while keeping three consecutive clean sheets as well.
