Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United will be looking to bounce back to winning ways after their 3-2 defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion in their previous game.

The Red Devils welcome Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford tonight in one of the most anticipate­d early league fixtures in the English Premier League.

Just two games into the new season and Mourinho’s side have not started their campaign well with that defeat on the south coast.

The loss to Albion was a big disappoint­ment for United with so much expectatio­ns from the fans following their runners-up finish last season.

United will have to get a victory against Tottenham to keep close with the rest of the top English sides like Chelsea and Liverpool who have enjoyed a convincing start to the 2018/2019 season.

United have had a good record against London teams at Old Trafford in the last couple of years, however, their poor start in the league has piled the pressure on Jose Mourinho.

I believe though United will edge Spurs.

M1: Levante v Celta de Vigo. Levante win. Tip: Levante win = 1 M2 Hamburger SV v Arminia Bielefeld. Entertaini­ng draw. Tip: Draw = 2 M3: Roma v Atalanta. Home win for Roma. Tip: Roma win = 1 M4: Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur. Previewed above. Tip: United win = 1 M5: Moreirense v Belenenses. Draw. Tip: Goalless draw = 2 M6: Athletic Bilbao v Huesca. Victory for Athletic

Tip: Athletic win = 1 that
