Tottenham predicted lineup vs Man Utd - Premier League

Tottenham welcome a Manchester United side in disarray to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League this weekend.

Nuno Espirito Santo's side tasted defeat against West Ham last weekend as they failed to recover from their midweek Europa Conference League disappointment against Vitesse.

They're in a slump of their own, having won just two of their last six league games, but progress in the Carabao Cup in midweek will have helped lift spirits in north London somewhat.

Here's how Nuno could line Tottenham up this weekend.

Tottenham predicted lineup vs Man Utd - Premier League

1. Goalkeeper & defenders

Hugo Lloris (GK) - The Frenchman will need to be at his best against a dangerous United attack.

Emerson Royal (RB) - Will need to defend when required and offer an attacking threat down the right hand side for Tottenham.

Cristian Romero (CB) - His physical approach to defending could unsettle Cristiano Ronaldo.

Eric Dier (CB) - Seems to be a favourite of Nuno's in defence, despite some shaky displays this season.

Sergio Reguilon (LB) - The Spaniard has been in impressive form this campaign.

2. Midfielders

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg (DM) - The 26-year-old hasn't quite hit the heights that he did under Jose Mourinho last season.

Oliver Skipp (DM) - Likely to partner Hojbjerg in midfield again as Nuno looks to tame the threat of Bruno Fernandes.

Tanguy Ndombele (AM) - The Frenchman could provide the X-factor for Tottenham in the attacking third.

3. Forwards

Lucas Moura (RW) - His searing pace on the counter-attack could be the key with Solskjaer likely to commit his full backs forward.

Harry Kane (ST) - Hasn't always enjoyed playing against United - he's scored four in 15 games - but he could profit against a side low in confidence.

Son Heung-min (LW) - Endured a frustrating afternoon against West Ham and he will be keen to bounce back.
