Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United
Hands up if you love this fixture!
Thank you…I do too.
My passion for Manchester United and the fact my long-time best friend is a Spurs supporter plays a massive part in that, sports betting fans.
Yet, football games like this provide something special for the purist anyway.
Two proud clubs with a rich tradition for playing football in an imaginative, attack-minded manner.
Two proud clubs whose personnel, both past and present, is littered with some of the greats.
Speed and verve will come together again at Wembley, Spurs’ temporary home and a fitting venue for a clash of this quality.
The reverse fixture at Old Trafford in late October, which United edged thanks to a late Anthony Martial goal, was as close as the scoreline suggests. It was also a tactical battle between two impressive managers.
This time should be no different. However, I expect a less cagey affair on the wide open spaces of Wembley with players of the calibre of Martial, Harry Kane (who was injured for the visit to OT), Christian Eriksen and Alexis Sanchez (poised to make his United league debut) set to offer entertainment and high energy.
The stakes are high as the chase for a lucrative top-four place is a tight one.
Defeat for Spurs would be an undoubted blow, hot on the heels of being held at Southampton.
Defeat for United would be damaging as they look to consolidate second spot.
I suspect, however, both sides will chase victory rather than try and avoid defeat at the home of English football.
Tradition dictates both clubs would not want it any other way!
