Manchester United vs. Tottenham Predictions

• Where: Old Trafford, Manchester, England
• When: Sunday, January 14, 5:30 pm CET

The Red Devils are still looking for decent form. Weeks are passing by, and the team from Manchester still doesn’t look good. Erik Ten Hag remains on the bench despite all of his poor decisions. Tottenham restored its form, with the Spurs returning on the winning track despite numerous injuries in its locker room. Their title talks are still alive, as well as the top-four race.

Manchester United vs. Tottenham Preview

Manchester United

One victory in the last six games caused United to lose its place in Europe and to sink further in the EPL standings. Interestingly, the victory was against Aston Villa, against whom they had a 0-2 deficit at halftime before scoring three times in a row to flip the result. 

United’s offense was problematic, having four consecutive matches at one point, in which they couldn’t net. Ten Hag and his tactical thoughts are highly questionable, and so is Marcus Rashford’s quality. 

The Red Devils are mediocre at home this year. Over the previous ten meetings at the Old Trafford, they had five victories and losses each, with seven games going over 2.5 goals. Pretty mediocre when compared to Ferguson’s era. 

Tottenham

James Maddison’s injury disrupted the Spurs, and after that happened, bad luck kept beating Tottenham. There wasn’t a single week in which at least one player didn’t have some sort of a health problem. 

However, since mid-December, Tottenham’s form sharply jumped, with the Spurs having five wins in six meetings and looking awesome. The rivals were solid, like Newcastle, Nottingham, Everton, or Bournemouth, and the only loss was to Brighton on the road.

The high efficiency is still the unit’s trademark, with two of the past ten not ending with three or more goals and both teams netting. Ange Postecoglu didn’t change anything in its approach, even though he had to deal with numerous problems.
