Tottenham vs Man Utd: Heavyweight clash to play role in respective outcomes

With the business end of the season well-and-truly upon us, both Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United will be desperate for three points when they lock horns at White Hart Lane this weekend.

Both teams have everything to play for, with Spurs still in the title race and the Red Devils desperate for a top-four finish.

The reverse fixture on the opening day of the campaign saw Louis van Gaal’s charges win 1-0 at Old Trafford, with the visitors feeling hard done by and that they deserved at least a point.

Since then the teams’ fortunes have switched, with Tottenham on an upward trajectory and United stalling.

However, for those with faith in the away side, another 1-0 victory for the Manchester outfit is priced at 10.50 by 888sport.

If Van Gaal’s side is to stand a chance of an away win, which would continue strong form against the division’s better teams this season, they will need to shackle Spurs’ attacking talisman Harry Kane.

The England international is on a red-hot streak and scored his side’s equaliser in the 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield last time out. Kane is priced at 4.20 to open the scoring here.

United youngster Marcus Rashford will look at Kane’s progression through the ranks at North London as an example and hope he can follow suit at Old Trafford.

The teenage striker has had a promising debut campaign and scored the only goal in the Manchester derby at the Etihad Stadium recently.

For Rashford to strike again, and United to win by that 1-0 scoreline, the odds look appealing at 37.00.

Tottenham simply must prevail if they are to stay on the coattails of division leaders Leicester, while United could see their Champions League dreams fade away if they are beaten.

All-in-all, it promises to be a mouthwatering fixture that will play a key role in determining both teams’ fortunes this season.
