Tottenham Preview & Form
Tottenham fans are currently enduring a tough season under Ange Postecoglou as their seasons keep getting worse week by week. The Spurs’ hope of winning domestic silverware this season took a major blow as Ange Postecoglou’s side was knocked out of both the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup last week. They were totally overturned by Liverpool in the second leg of the Carabao Cup by a 4-1 aggregate and then were shown the exit door by Aston Villa in the FA Cup fourth round at Villa Park. The last time out in the Premier League, Ange Postecoglou’s side ended a seven-game winless streak by beating Brentford 2-0 at the Gtech Community Stadium a couple of weeks ago. Currently, they sit 14th in the league standings with 27 points, two points behind their fellow struggling Manchester United, and ten points adrift of the drop zone.
Under pressure, Ange Postecoglou’s side has also struggled on their home soil in the league, with Spurs currently riding on a six-game winless run in the league. It is worth noting that each of Spurs’ last ten home league games have resulted in both teams scoring.
Manchester United Preview & Form
Manchester United’s season is not getting better in the league despite the appointment of Ruben Amorim, as the Red Devils are languishing below the mid-table. However, Ruben Amorim’s side will take confidence after winning four of their last five matches across all competitions. Last weekend, the Red Devils struggled to come from a goal behind to snatch a controversial 2-1 win over Leicester City at Old Trafford in the FA Cup fourth-round ties thanks to a late strike from Joshua Zirkzee and Harry Maguire’s last-minute header. The last time out in the league, Ruben Amorim’s side suffered a 2-0 defeat against Crystal Palace at Old Trafford. United now sits 13th in the Premier League standings with 29 points, 12 points behind the drop zone, and 11 points behind the top six.
Ruben Amorim’s side has remained unbeaten in their last two Premier League games, playing a 2-1 draw in their trip to Anfield and securing a 1-0 victory over Fulham at Craven Cottage Stadium. Since the appointment of Ruben Amorim, his side has scored in four of their last six away games.
