Manchester United host winless Tottenham in Premier League clash

Manchester United welcome Tottenham to Old Trafford on Saturday, 10 October 2026, with both sides looking to improve disappointing starts to the Premier League season.

The fixture, part of the sixth round of the English championship, kicks off at 16:30 GMT and is one of the weekend’s leading matches.

United have collected only five points from their opening five games. Their record stands at one win, two draws and two defeats, leaving them 12th in the table. They drew 1-1 with Fulham in their most recent match.

Tottenham’s position is even more difficult. The Spurs are bottom of the standings with two points and have yet to win in the Premier League. They have suffered three defeats and drawn twice, scoring only two goals so far.

Previous meetings

Manchester United have the stronger overall record in this fixture. Data from Transfermarkt shows the clubs have met 195 times, with the Red Devils winning 94 matches, compared with 54 victories for Tottenham. The remaining 47 encounters ended in draws.

Recent results, however, have favoured Tottenham. Across the five latest meetings, the Spurs have won three times, while Manchester United have recorded one victory. The other match finished level.

Despite their inconsistent form, Manchester United are regarded as favourites because they are playing at home and face a Tottenham side without a league win and sitting at the foot of the table. Africafoot’s prediction is a 3-1 victory for the hosts, with United’s attacking options and home advantage identified as key factors.

The betting company 1xbet lists Manchester United at 1.63 to win. A draw is priced at 3.90, while Tottenham are offered at 4.10.

The match gives both teams an opportunity to alter the direction of their campaigns, with Manchester United seeking a second league win and Tottenham aiming for their first of the season.
