Team News
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham will again be without the services of Ryan Sessegnon due to a long-term hamstring problem, while Bryan Gil is unlikely to be available, having picked up a thigh issue against Burnley in the EFL Cup on Wednesday.

Nuno has no other injury concerns at this stage, and the manager could decide to select the same team that took to the field for the first whistle against West Ham last weekend.

Kane and Son Heung-min are certainties to feature in the final third of the field, while Lucas Moura and Tanguy Ndombele should also feature from the first whistle, with Oliver Skipp lining up in midfield.

Giovani Lo Celso and Steven Bergwijn are perhaps the two players pushing hardest to break into the first XI, but Nuno could ultimately resist the temptation to shuffle his pack.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Lloris; Emerson, Romero, Dier, Reguilon; Skipp, Hojbjerg; Lucas, Ndombele, Son; Kane

Manchester United
Man United, meanwhile, will be without the services of Paul Pogba through suspension, with the France international receiving a straight red card after coming on as a substitute against Liverpool.

The Red Devils will be boosted by the return of Raphael Varane, though, as the centre-back has overcome a groin problem, meaning that he could be back into the side on Saturday.

Anthony Martial and Amad Diallo will also hope to be involved in the squad, with both players overcoming injuries in time for the contest.

Solskjaer is unlikely to make wholesale changes from the Liverpool loss, but Nemanja Matic could come into the midfield, while Jadon Sancho might be handed a spot on the right, with Mason Greenwood dropping out.

Edinson Cavani and Jesse Lingard are both options for change, but it is difficult to imagine Bruno Fernandes and Cristiano Ronaldo dropping out of the starting XI despite the recent speculation.
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Maguire, Shaw; Matic, Fred; Sancho, Fernandes, Rashford; Ronaldo

Prediction: Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Manchester United
