Ange Postecoglou's first Premier League home game in charge of Tottenham Hotspur sees Manchester United visit North London for a blockbuster clash on Saturday evening.
The Lilywhites played out an entertaining 2-2 draw with Brentford on the opening weekend, as Cristian Romero and Emerson Royal netted either side of Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa's efforts.
A four-goal stalemate was also on the menu when Spurs hosted Man United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in April, prior to which the capital side lost 2-0 at Old Trafford back in October.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Red Devils, who were counting their lucky stars in a 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out.
