Manchester United vs Tottenham live: Latest team news and line-ups from Premier League

Dominic Solanke – who scored twice against Man City last time out – has scored five goals in his last five appearances against Manchester United in all competitions.

He’s averaging a goal every 88 minutes in all competitions this season, the best rate of any Spurs player.

Matheus Cunha has been involved in four goals in his last five Premier League games (3 goals, 1 assist), as many as in his first 16 appearances for Manchester United (3 goals, 1 assist).

Tottenham are winless in their last six Premier League games (four draw, two defeats).

It is their longest run since their last seven in 2024-25.

However, five of Spurs’ seven league wins this season have come away from home.

The Stretford End songbook was focused on two defensive midfielders. The song celebrating Michael Carrick was, like the man himself, brought back from the past. Yet after the final whistle, after an injury-time winner, the name sung longest and loudest was that of Casemiro.

He has started his long goodbye at Old Trafford. He has been talisman and transformative presence, laughing stock and fading force. Now it seems the Brazilian will go as a cult hero, and a man who will leave a sizeable gap in the midfield.

Only bottom two sides Burnley (23) and Wolves (21) have conceded more first half goals than Tottenham (18) in the Premier League this season.

Spurs are winless in all 10 of their league games when behind at the break this term (drawn three, lost seven) and are unbeaten in all six when leading at half-time (won five, drawn one).

Manchester United are unbeaten in their last seven Premier League games (won four, drawn three) and have won all three since Michael Carrick returned as manager.

The Red Devils last won four in a row in February 2024 under Erik ten Hag, while they last had a longer run without defeat in February 2022 (8 under Ralf Rangnick).

Tottenham are unbeaten in their last eight meetings with Manchester United in all competitions (five wins, three draws).

It’s their longest ever run without defeat against them, while in the 21st century only Chelsea have gone longer against the Red Devils (12 between 2012 and 2017).

Tottenham won this exact fixture 3-0 last season – only once have they won consecutive away games against Man Utd in the Premier League, doing so in January 2014.

Man Utd are winless in their last six league games against Tottenham Hotspur (three draws, three defeats).

It is their joint-longest ever run without a win against them (also 6 between 1914 and 1921).

Romero was replaced at half-time of the clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium due to illness, with his side at that point completely lifeless and without much hope of turning around a two-goal deficit.
