There was another uninspiring performance from Manchester United on the weekend as they were held to a home draw by Aston Villa. There comes a tougher fixture on paper in midweek for them at OT. Tottenham head north meaning that new boss Jose Mourinho gets an early return to face his former club. He’s probably relishing the chance at winning there.

Manchester United News and Form – Can the Red Devils beat Spurs?

Given how much Man Utd laboured at home against Aston Villa on Sunday, punters will be unsure of their ability to beat Spurs on Wednesday. The Red Devils are unbeaten in their last three top-flight games and have suffered one defeat in their last six played (W2 D3). They have only drawn their last two however against Sheffield United and Aston Villa. That was a total of five goals conceded in those two draws as well. Man Utd have failed to collect a clean sheet in any of their last eight league outings.

But they have now scored at least 2 goals in each of their last three and four of their last five. Their home record moves on to W3 D3 L1. Home and away they have won just two of their last nine league games, victories over the struggling Norwich and Brighton. The Red Devils have averaged 1.8 goals per home game this season but it is now a four-match streak at Old Trafford from them without a clean sheet. United have been leading at the break in five of their seven home games this season. ut they have conceded the opening goal in three of their last four league outings (home and away).

Tottenham News and Form – Can Spurs win at Old Trafford?

Jose Mourinho has had an impact since returning to the Premier League to take over at Spurs. He has seen them take back to back 3-2 successes over West Ham and Bournemouth. While they still look shaky at the back, their improved goalscoring will be something that will be pleasing fans of the Lilywhites. It is a four-match unbeaten streak of league form that spurs are currently on, losing just one of their last six, which was away at Liverpool. It hasn’t been a great season on the road by Spurs, with only a W1 D3 L3 record.

In their last two games, Spurs have raced out to 3-0 leads and then have conceded second-half goals to fall back under pressure. Given time Mourinho is likely to get them into shape at the back. But for now, it is no clean sheet by Tottenham in their last nine league outings. They haven’t taken one on the road. Spurs have averaged two goals per game against them this season on the road. Spurs have been leading at half time in four of their seven road games, it’s just been a lack of ability to run a tight ship in the second half of fixtures. Two-thirds of their away goals conceded happening after the break.

Manchester United vs Tottenham Predictions

Tottenham to win: Spurs have been dynamic in the early stages of their games under Jose Mourinho. There is no reason why they can’t go and take a win against a Man Utd side who look completely unassured of themselves at the back. Spurs are better in attack and have Dele Alli come right into form to help out. Away win.
