How to watch and follow match preview of Tottenham v Man Utd | 16 February
TOTTENHAM TEAM NEWS
Ange Postecoglou has reported that Guglielmo Vicario is back and available for selection. The goalkeeper has been out since fracturing his ankle in our 4-0 win against Manchester City on 23 November.
James Maddison and Destiny Udogie have returned to training and are expected to be available for selection for the visit of United. Brennan Johnson and Timo Werner also returned to training this week. Wilson Odobert is back on the grass but caution will be taken with his reintegration.
Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, Radu Dragusin, Dominic Solanke and Richarlison all remain sidelined.
OPPOSITION REPORT
Spurs are experiencing a tough time of things, with an impressive 2-0 victory at Brentford their only league win this year. Their last home outing in the competition was the surprise 2-1 reverse to Ruud van Nistelrooy’s Leicester City in January.
Postecoglou has, rightly, pointed to the long injury list as the main source of the problems but the attack was strengthened during the window, when Mathys Tel arrived on loan from Bayern Munich. The promising striker got off the mark with the consolation effort in the 2-1 FA Cup loss at Villa.
With Dominic Solanke, who has a good record against United, another of those out of action at the moment, Tel could be a key figure on Sunday.
Centre-back Kevin Danso has also joined to help increase the options in defence.
