Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester United

Team news

Tottenham trio James Maddison, Destiny Udogie and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario are all fit again and available for selection.

Brennan Johnson, Wilson Odobert and Timo Werner are back in various stages of training, while Cristian Romero, Dominic Solanke and Micky van de Ven are thought to be a few weeks away from a return.

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim admitted he was forced to draft in academy players to train with the senior squad this week due to injury and illness issues.
