CAN AMORIM BUILD SOME SERIOUS MOMENTUM WITH ANOTHER BIG AWAY WIN?
United's victory at City was something of a statement, but victory here would see them triumph at the home of another 'big-six rival' which was something they struggled to do under Erik ten Hag.

TOTTENHAM HALF CHANCE
A rapid counter attack sees Son surge forward from the halfway line. He feeds Kulusevski to his left, but the Swede's dangerous cut back is just behind the South Korean and Man United scramble it to safety.

LEADING SPURS TOUGHER THAN RUNNING THE COUNTRY JOKES ANGE
Managing a Premier League side is tougher than being prime minister of England, according to Tottenham Hotspur head coach Ange Postecoglou, who is struggling to guide his side through a patchy run of form.
Tottenham battered Southampton, only their second win in nine, coupled with a sensational win over Manchester City. Postecoglou says he faces "an election every weekend" unlike the PM.

Manchester United
NO MARCUS RASHFORD, NO PROBLEM?
The pre-match spotlight is on the continued absence of Rashford, who claimed it is time for a ‘new challenge’ after also being omitted from the squad for the win over City in the Manchester derby at the weekend.
Ruben Amorim is clearly flexing his muscles as he looks to stamp his authority on Carrington and he makes five changes from the side that started the late comeback triumph at the Etihad Stadium with goalkeeper Altay Bayinder featuring between the sticks.
Victor Lindelof and Leny Yoro come into the defence, while Christian Eriksen and Antony also get the nod.
Alejandro Garnacho, who was also left out at the weekend, is back and amongt the substitutes.
