Manchester United faces Tottenham in a crucial Premier League match as both teams aim for a significant victory to boost their season.
Recently, United has struggled, recording only two wins against Fulham and Southampton, and they drew 1-1 against FC Twente in the UEFA Europa League.
Erik ten Hag is under increasing scrutiny as he attempts to improve the team’s performance, particularly after the club previously chose to retain him over the summer.
Tottenham, managed by Ange Postecoglou, started their Europa League journey strong with a 3-0 victory against FK Qarabag but similarly only managed two league wins this season.

Team News and Lineups for Man United vs. Tottenham
Manchester United will be without injuries to four players: Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof, Tyrell Malacia, and new addition Lenny Yoro. Shaw and Lindelof should return in October, while Malacia and Yoro face longer lay-offs.
Mason Mount has made a comeback against Twente and could play again here, though he might be on the bench.
Predicted XI for Man United (4-2-3-1): Onana (GK) — Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot — Mainoo, Eriksen — Rashford, Fernandes, Garnacho — Hojlund.
Man United substitutes: TBC
Postecoglou has adjusted his strategy by placing James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski in midfield, which proved successful against Brentford. Unless he changes course, they will likely continue in that setup.
Richarlison remains out for another month, and Wilson Odobert is dealing with a hamstring injury from the EFL Cup.
Radu Dragusin should be able to play despite his dismissal in the recent match against Qarabag, as his ban only concerns European play, but he is unlikely to start.
Predicted XI for Tottenham (4-3-3): Vicario (GK) — Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Udogie — Kulusevski, Betancur, Maddison — Johnson, Solanke, Son.
Tottenham substitutes: TBC
