London, November 8, 2025 - Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United faced off today in a highly anticipated Premier League clash at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Both teams entered the match with 17 points, sitting sixth and eighth in the league respectively, separated only by goal difference. A win for either side would have been a significant boost, offering a chance to climb higher in the congested Premier League table.

Tottenham came into the game following a confidence-boosting 4-0 victory over FC Copenhagen in the Champions League after suffering a defeat to Chelsea. However, their recent home form in the Premier League has been a concern, with the team struggling to replicate their away form at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. In contrast, Manchester United were looking to avenge their Europa League final defeat against Spurs last season. United had been on a four-game unbeaten run, and manager Ruben Amorim aimed to improve their away form, where they have struggled in recent matches.

The match kicked off at 12:30 PM GMT. Tottenham's manager, Thomas Frank, acknowledged the confidence within the United squad and the challenge posed by their dangerous attacking players. Key matchups were anticipated across the pitch, including Micky Van de Ven against Benjamin Sesko, Djed Spence against Amad Diallo, and Mohammed Kudus against Diogo Dalot.

Historically, Tottenham has had the upper hand in recent encounters with Manchester United. Spurs are unbeaten in their last seven meetings with the Red Devils, including a victory in the Europa League final. Manchester United's last win against Tottenham was back in October 2022. Last season, Tottenham completed a league double over Manchester United.

Going into the match, Tottenham had lost a league-high nine Premier League home games in 2025. Manchester United's away form has also been poor, with just one win in their last 11 domestic away games.
