Summary:

Tottenham is in excellent form going (8-0-2) in their last ten matches while Manchester United is (6-3-1) in that span.  Tottenham is (3-1-1) in their last five head to head games against Manchester United.  Tottenham is the best home team in the EPL boasting a (16-2-0) record.  Manchester United is (10-4-3) on the road this season.  Manchester United was dealt a huge blow when they lost striker Zlatan Imbrahimovic for the season with injury.  Imbrahimovic scored 17 of Manchester United’s 51 goals this season.  The dynamic duo of Harry Kane (21 goals) and Dele Alli (17) have been lethal in front of goal.  I expect a low scoring game with the top two defensive teams in the league facing off.  Tottenham has the advantage in nearly every statistical category and should win this one at home.
