Manchester United and Tottenham will face off in a Premier League match on Saturday, August 19th at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Both teams are looking to start the season off with a win, and this should be an exciting match-up.
Manchester United are coming off a 1-0 win over Wolves in their opening game of the season. The Red Devils were not at their best, but they were able to get the job done thanks to a goal from Raphaël Varane. United will be looking to build on that performance and get their first three points at Tottenham.
Tottenham, on the other hand, are coming off a 1-1 draw with Southampton. The Spurs were the better team in that match, but they were unable to find a winner. Tottenham will be hoping to improve their finishing in this match and get their first win of the season.
This match is a clash of two teams with very different styles of play. Manchester United are a possession-based team that likes to build their attacks from the back. Tottenham, on the other hand, are a more direct team that likes to get the ball forward quickly. This should make for an interesting match-up, as both teams will be looking to impose their own style on the game.
The match is expected to be close, and it could go either way. However, Manchester United are the slight favorites, as they have a more settled team and a better manager in Erik ten Hag.
Prediction: Manchester United 2-1 Tottenham
