Tottenham take on Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday

Hello and welcome to football.london’s live coverage of Tottenham’s Premier League clash against Manchester United.

Starting 2024 with a late 1-0 win over Burnley in the FA Cup, Ange Postecoglou’s team have league football to look forward to once again as they make the trip to Old Trafford.

It is a game that could see Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven feature following their recent injuries, with new arrivals Radu Dragusin and Timo Werner potentially in line for some minutes.

A big chance for Tottenham to take advantage of Arsenal and Liverpool not playing this weekend, it will still be an incredibly tough game for the Lilywhites despite Manchester United’s mixed form.

 

Tottenham correspondent Alasdair Gold is covering the game with all the build-up and the action as it happens on the pitch and reaction from the supporters and media.

BREAKING

They absolutely are moving in the right direction, the players they’ve signed look good, but they’ll be disappointed to have not gotten the win tonight. It’s still a good point for them away from home for them and it’s a different kind of Spurs we’re watching now. That’s down to the manager, they’re playing on the front foot a lot more now and there’s a reason they’re still in with a chance to win the league at the end of the season.
