Tottenham vs. Manchester United Prediction

Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Tottenham vs. Manchester United at EFL Cup

Where: Tottenham Stadium, London, England
When: Friday, December 20, 04:00 AM

The Spurs host Manchester United, and their manager, Ange Postecoglou, is under heavy pressure. The team isn’t playing well at all, injuries are tearing apart the chemistry on the field, and the results are utterly poor. On the other hand, United still isn’t at the desired level, and they, too, are highly inconsistent.

Tottenham vs. Manchester United

Tottenham

Postecoglou is under pressure. His words about Timo Werner after the Rangers game are a sign that he isn’t going to put up with slackers anymore. But also, that he feels the heat coming from the stands and the board.

The match in Glasgow was the fifth in a row the team hadn’t won and the seventh in the past eight events. Now, that’s an understandable reason to set the alarm off.

That contest was also the 10th in the previous 11 in which the Spurs have allowed at least a goal. Overall their games are efficient and end with three or more hits, but mostly due to Tottenham’s poor defense.

Manchester United

Ruben Amorim posted his first road win as Man United manager. The Red Devils triumphed in Plzen 1-2 in the Europa League this Thursday. Rasmus Hojlund netted a brace after coming in the game to erase his team’s deficit.

This is a big push for the Danish strikers, who haven’t been at the expected level since coming to Manchester. Hopefully, Amorim will find a place for him and use his qualities to upgrade United’s performances.

The victory in the Czech Republic was the first on the road for the Red Devils since mid-September. They had seven outings in a row without picking up three points.

Tottenham vs Manchester United Head-to-Head Games

In late September, the Spurs blew away United at Old Trafford, 0-3. It was the fourth time Tottenham had scored two or more goals against United. Johnson, Kulusevski, and Solanke all hit the back of Manchester’s net.

Tottenham vs. Manchester United Prediction

The Spurs are with their backs against the wall, and the pressure of not winning a trophy despite playing well in the past few years forces them here to go all-in. On the other hand, Amorim wants to stay in the combination for the trophy here, even though it’s not the EPL title or the FA Cup. He wants a piece of silverware in his first season, and we expect United to be in the best lineup, too. Because of that, both teams scoring is our pick here.

Our verdict: Both teams to score
