Friday's Premier League predictions including Tottenham vs. Manchester United

Sports Mole provides score predictions for Friday's Premier League action including Tottenham Hotspur vs. Manchester United and Norwich vs. Southampton.

Norwich City play host to Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon sitting six points adrift of safety in the standings.

Meanwhile, the Saints make the trip to Carrow Road holding just a seven-point advantage above the bottom three after a poor run of form.

We say: Norwich City 1-1 Southampton


While Hasenhuttl would prefer a win at Carrow Road, avoiding defeat may be his priority this weekend. With that in mind, we feel that the Saints will do enough to earn a share of the spoils against opponents who will inevitably push hard for all three points.

Spurs vs. Man Utd (Friday, 8.15pm)

Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United resume their Premier League campaigns on Friday following a break of more than 100 days.

The sides experienced contrasting form prior to the coronavirus-enforced shutdown, with United going 11 games without defeat in all competitions and Spurs failing to win in six.

United are much better placed for a top-five finish ahead of the restart, sitting three places higher than Spurs in what is likely to be the final Champions League qualifying spot.

We say: Tottenham Hotspur 1-1 Manchester United


United are unbeaten in five Premier League games and have kept four clean sheets during that run - as many as they managed in their previous 35 top-flight outings.

Spurs, by comparison, have kept the joint fewest clean sheets in the division this term and badly struggled for wins before the shutdown.

The form book will surely go out of the window for this first game back, though, and we are backing the Lilywhites to kickstart their campaign with a battling point.
