Tottenham vs Manchester United - Premier League LIVE: Latest score, team news and updates as Benjamin Sesko is DROPPED

Ruben Amorim has been speaking to TNT Sports:

'I tried to do something different. We had time to work during the week and we have to imagine what our set-up will do to the opponent.

'Having time to prepare for every game and control the injuries is crucial. The negative is that we have so many players who deserve more minutes (being out of Europe)!

'[It's good] To see how the team is improving in the small details, the way against Nottingham we suffered two goals but managed to control the emotions, the way we defended at Anfield.'

Believe it or not, if either of these teams win, they'll jump up to second!

Obviously they then have to watch the rest of the league play and will likely slip down again, but still, it sets the tone and brings a dose of positivity.

Here they are, snapped by our very own Nathan Salt! Not sure the first two fellas in line will get a game.

Christmas has apparently come early for this Manchester United fan. Is early November acceptable?

As long as they're having a good time, I guess that's all that counts.

Three changes from Thomas Frank from the 4-0 win over Copenhagen and Richarlison earns his first Premier League start since September.

Spence, Palhinha, and Richarlison are in, while Udogie, Bentancur, and Odobert drop to the bench.

Ruben Amorim makes three changes to the side that drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest and has reconfigured how his men line up slightly.

Mazraoui, Maguire, and Dorgu come in while Yoro, Dalot, and Sesko drop out.

Our friends at Squawka have put together a stat pack for today's game.

What stands out to me there is how many more chances United are creating per game than their opponents today.

They're making 11.6 chances per game compared to Spurs' 7.1, and their usual expected goals tally of 2.15 is almost double Tottenham's 1.24.

Thomas Frank's men are ahead in the only metric that really counts, though: the league table.

Tottenham triumphed 1-0 the last time they welcomed Manchester United to their home ground back in February.

James Maddison bagged the only goal of the game, but they'll need to rely on somebody else today as he is of course out injured.

It might not quite be the five wins on the trot that fuzzy-haired Frank Ilett wants, but Manchester United can reach an important milestone today.

Avoid defeat and they'll have gone five games without a loss in the Premier League, certainly something which can lift the mood.

Ruben Amorim was given Premier League manager of the month for October and his side are on a run of three wins and a draw coming into this one.

Tottenham are hoping to arrest a huge slide at home today.

It's well-publicised by now that their home Premier League form is woeful. Three wins in their last 19, to be exact.

But after their 4-0 hammering of Copenhagen on Tuesday in the Champions League, they've actually won 18 of their last 22 home ties in Europe.

They'll need to draw on that energy today.
