Manchester United secured a 3-2 victory against Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford in a thrilling Premier League encounter. Manchester United, under the guidance of interim head coach Michael Carrick, have found winning momentum, securing their third straight league win.

The match saw goals from Casemiro, Matheus Cunha, and Benjamin Sesko for Manchester United. Tottenham responded with two goals from Dominic Solanke, but it wasn't enough to secure any points.

Manchester United played against Fulham at Old Trafford last weekend and won the match 3-2. Spurs, on the other hand, drew 2-2 with Manchester City at home last weekend. After trailing 2-0 at halftime, Spurs managed to salvage a point thanks to Solanke's brace.

Earlier in the season, Tottenham hosted Manchester United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on November 8, 2025. That match ended in a 2-2 draw. Mathys Tels and Richarlison scored for Tottenham, while Bryan Mbeumo and Matthijs De Ligt scored for Manchester United.

Carrick will be without Matthijs de Ligt, Mason Mount, and Patrick Dorgu for today's match. Senne Lammens is expected to start in goal, continuing his run since his debut against Sunderland in October. Despite having only three clean sheets, Lammens has impressed with spectacular saves. Harry Maguire and Lisandro Martinez are likely to continue as the center-back pairing, with Diogo Dalot and Luke Shaw at full-back. Casemiro and Kobbie Mainoo are expected to retain their places in midfield.

Looking back at the head-to-head record between these two clubs, Manchester United has won 20 times, Tottenham Hotspur has won 12 times, and 10 matches have ended in a draw in their previous 42 encounters. In those matches, Manchester United has scored 65 goals, while Tottenham Hotspur has scored 54.
