Spurs must now prove their worth against a more defensive-minded Jose Mourinho side after being stunned by West Ham in the EFL Cup.
The teams head into the Old Trafford game level on points, though United boast a superior goal difference, with a draw potentially seeing pace-setters Manchester City move seven points clear at the top.
United won the same fixture last season but can Spurs maintain their winning streak to record only a third ever Premier League win at the famous ground?
Team News
Manchester United’s injury problems continue to mount and Jose Mourinho is facing somewhat of a midfield crisis.
With Paul Pogba, Michael Carrick, Marouane Fellaini and Michael Carrick all sidelined, Ander Herrera is now a doubt to face Spurs after picking up an ankle injury in midweek which could see Daley Blind drafted into midfield.
For Tottenham, news that Mousa Dembele has returned to first-team training is a welcome boost, but Victor Wanyama and Erik Lamela remain sidelined.
Man Utd predicted starting XI:
De Gea; Valencia, Smalling, Jones, Darmian; Blind, Matic; Young, Mkhitaryan, Martial; Lukaku
Tottenham predicted starting XI:
Lloris; Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen; Trippier, Dembele, Dier, Davies; Eriksen, Dele; Kane
