United have won their first three matches under the new head coach and will hope to make it four in a row on Saturday lunchtime. Tottenham are the lowest ranked side they have faced under Carrick, but they showed they are still a force to be reckoned with as they came from behind to draw with Man City last time out.
Matthijs De Ligt, Mason Mount and Patrick Dorgu are all expected to miss the clash, while Carrick might have to choose between Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko in attack. Here is how we think United could line up.
Maguire will be the starting centre-back until De Ligt is fit again at the very least.
