Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur return to action this evening as Manchester United head to North London.

Spurs opened their campaign with a 2-2 draw at Brentford as they kicked off the post-Harry Kane era.

Postecoglou has made just two changes but continues with Guglielmo Vicario in goal this evening.

Cristian Romero is fit to start after taking a blow to the head last week and will partner Micky van de Ven at the back.

Pedro Porro comes in for Emerson Royal at right back but Destiny Udogie keeps his place on the left side.

Oliver Skipp drops out of the side this evening with Pape Matar Sarr coming in to join Yves Bissouma and James Maddison in midfield.

Richarlison leads the line for Tottenham as Dejan Kulusevski and Son Heung-min support him from wide areas.

Fraser Forster, Davinson Sanchez, Ben Davies, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Giovani Lo Celso, Manor Solomon and Ivan Perisic join Emerson and Skipp on the bench.

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag names an unchanged side from the one which rather unconvincingly beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0 on Monday night.

Andre Onana starts in goal with a back four of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Luke Shaw ahead of him.

Casemiro will sit in holding midfield with Mason Mount and Bruno Fernandes further ahead of him.

Alejandro Garnacho and Antony start out wide again with Marcus Rashford through the middle.

Jadon Sancho is only on the bench despite a bright cameo against Wolves, joining Dean Henderson, Radek Vitek, Diogo Dalot, Victor Lindelof, Christian Eriksen, Scott McTominay, Facundo Pellistri and Anthony Martial.
