Tottenham v Man United commentary and teams: Under-fire Solskjaer faces must win

United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is under immense pressure following last weekend's hopeless defeat at home to Liverpool.

While Solskjaer has survived the sack, he'll need to start putting things right as soon as possible and stating with Saturday's trip to north London.

Spurs have had a mixed campaign as well and lost to West Ham last time out.

Both sides could do with a morale-boosting result and performance and there will be plenty on the line.

This fixture was littered with goals last season with United winning 3-1 in the capital and Spurs claiming an incredible 6-1 win at Old Trafford.

Tottenham v Man United: Match facts

Tottenham have lost more Premier League games against Manchester United than they have versus any other side in the competition (36).

After a six-game winless run away to Tottenham in the Premier League (D3 L3), Manchester United have won two of their last three visits to Spurs in the competition (D1).

Just one of the last six Premier League matches between Tottenham and Manchester United have been won by the home side, with Manchester United winning 2-1 at Old Trafford in December 2019.

Manchester United's record 29-game away unbeaten run in the Premier League ended in their last match on the road against Leicester. They last lost consecutive away games in the competition in the two matches that preceded their unbeaten run - against Arsenal and Liverpool in January 2020.

Nuno Espírito Santo has lost four of his first nine Premier League matches as Spurs manager (W5) - the only manager to lose more than four of his first 10 Premier League games in charge of Tottenham was Christian Gross in 1997-98, who lost five.

Manchester United have conceded 10 Premier League goals this October, more than any other side. They have only conceded more than 10 in two calendar months, shipping 11 in October 1996 and December 2018.

After netting three goals in his first two Premier League appearances for Man Utd this season, Cristiano Ronaldo hasn't scored in any of his last four league matches, his worst run since November 2017 for Real Madrid (also four in a row). He hasn't gone five in a row without a goal since a run of nine for the Red Devils between November 2008 and January 2009.
