Preview: Tottenham Vs Manchester United
on Sunday january 16, 4:10 P.M. GMT(9:55 PM Nepali time). Tottenham Hotspurs(4th) welcome Manchester United (1st) in the most eagerly anticipated premier league clash of the weekend. Manchester United are currently at the top of the table with good confidence and ahead of Man City, Arsenal while Tottenham are 8 points behind at fourth spot who are keen on occupying a champions league place for next year. But Harry Redknapp has insisted time and again that they can win the title who has also supported by Man Utd's Ryan Giggs who said -"Tottenham are a serious title contenders and are threat to us.Why cant they win the title?"
Manchester United are boosted by the return of duo Wayne Rooney after missing two matches and Nemanja Vidic who was rested. Keeper Van Der sar has still not escaped with flu virus and might miss the match,Kuszack who insisted to be No. 1 at united will be the goalkeeper. Paul Scholes is a doubt for this match.
The big news around White Hart Lane is of course David Beckham's arrival to train with the team however boss Redknapp couldn't manage him to play for his old club Man United. Gareth Bale who suffered back injury and missed a two day training will return into action. Ledley King and Woodgate are out.
Manchester United are still unbeaten in the premier league but yet to perform at their best while Tottenham are a sparking side at Champions league and EPL by famous win over Inter, have only lost a game against Wigan this season at White Heart Lane and are a difficult side to beat. Red devils have a strong past and unbeaten with Spurs for over a decade.
However my prediction is:
Totenham Hotspurs 1-2 Manchester United
