Tottenham vs Manchester Utd Prediction and Betting Tips (Sunday 11st April)

Tottenham and Manchester United meet in one of the best moments of their respective seasons; the Red Devils and the Spurs in the last five games are second only to the super Manchester City of Guardiola. Solskajer's team has returned from three successes in a row against Brighton, West Ham and in the derby that allowed them to remain second with 60 points, the "cousins" at the top of the standings are now impregnable, and to defend the place of honor we can't stop seeing that Leicester is only minus four. Less brilliant standings for Tottenham who are sixth at 49 and must recover three points at West Ham to try to reach fourth place. The Spurs, however, also have to watch their backs because Everton, eighth, are 47 and have one game less.

Tottenham have become renowned for keeping things tight on home soil, with 17 of their previous 20 top-flight fixtures, including nine in a row of late, serving up under 2.5 goals. A thriller would therefore seem unlikely against most opponents, but particularly against a Manchester Utd side that has been involved in 13 such low-scoring encounters across their last 17 trips.

Over the course of their last 15 Premier League matches, Manchester Utd have been involved in just a couple of contests in which both teams have found the net, so this is a pretty unusual occurrence. Not only that, but at least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from eight of the previous 13 top-flight fixtures involving Tottenham.
