NO BETTER CHANCE FOR SPURS TO END OLD TRAFFORD CURSE

-

MY VERDICT JAMIE REDKNAPP

THIS could be the perfect game for Jose mourinho. Tottenham can be flaky in the big games, winning just two of their 20 away matches against their top six rivals under mauricio Pochettino. alexis Sanchez terrorised Tottenham in the Fa Cup semi-final. If he is fit, he owes United another brilliant performanc­e. Pochettino will be happy to head back to London with a draw. PREDICTION: 1-1

MY VERDICT MARTIN KEOWN

I’M expecting a cracker. With the likes of Paul Pogba, Romelu Lukaku and Marcus Rashford, United have players who can hurt Tottenham. The Old Trafford faithful will be demanding a reaction after the Brighton defeat. The problem is that United’s central defensive partnershi­p looks loose. They do not seem solid or confident. PREDICTION: 2-2

MY VERDICT CHRIS SUTTON

TONIGHT we will find out if United’s stars are still playing for their manager. Lose convincing­ly and the pressure will only mount on Jose mourinho. His most recent press conference suggests he is agitated and angry. after United’s shoddy defensive display at Brighton, Harry Kane will be licking his lips. Tottenham will not have a better chance to win at Old Trafford. PREDICTION: 1-2
