Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 203
Man Utd wins: 96
Draws: 51
Spurs wins: 56
Manchester United comfortably lead the overall head-to-head record between these two sides, winning 96 of their previous 203 meetings, while Tottenham Hotspur have 56 victories, and there have also been 51 draws.
The 20-time English champions have also dominated their Premier League encounters, recording 39 wins, while they have only ever lost 12 times to Tottenham in the Premier League.
Spurs recorded a 2-0 victory over Man United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in August 2023, which proved to be their first success against the Red Devils since winning 6-1 at Old Trafford in October 2020.
However, the reverse fixture at Old Trafford in 2023-24 finished 2-2.
The North London outfit have actually only won three of their last 11 league clashes with Man United, but three of their last four victories over them have come at Old Trafford, having also won 3-0 in August 2018.
Wayne Rooney is Man United's all-time leading Premier League goalscorer against Tottenham, finding the back of the net on 11 occasions.
However, the overall record is held by Denis Law, who struck 14 goals against Spurs, with Sir Bobby Charlton in second on 12, while Bobby Smith (11) and Jimmy Greaves (11) are also in the top five with Rooney.
The last league meeting between the two sides took place in September 2024, with Tottenham recording a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford, and it proved to be an even more damaging afternoon for Man United, as they had Bruno Fernandes sent off in the first period.
Spurs then recorded a 4-3 victory over Man United in the quarter-finals of the EFL Cup in December 2024, with the capital outfit now unbeaten in their last five matches against the Red Devils.
