Team form: Manchester United vs Tottenham

Manchester United Form

A single draw is all Manchester United have to show from their last three games, where they came up short, losing 0-1 and 2-3 against Manchester City and Brighton respectively. Their latest match brought some consolation with a 1-1 against Fulham. It has been a bit hit-and-miss for Manchester United but at least mostly hit, as they put four wins on the board in their previous six Premier League matches. They didn’t draw any matches, but lost twice, scoring 14 goals while conceding ten.

Tottenham Form

A draw is all that prevents Tottenham from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They claimed this single draw against Everton as the match ended 0-0 before getting trounced against Liverpool by a 3-1 score. Last time out, more disappointment followed as Aston Villa won the game and the exact score was 2-3. In their last six away matches in the Premier League, Tottenham won twice, while also recording one draw. They endured three defeats in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying seven goals conceded and four scored.
