Preview 21: Spurs host United at home.

Tottenham Hotspurs vs Manchester United
White Hart Lane
Kicks off @ 4.10 PM GMT 

It's Tottenham Hotspurs vs Manchester United in a few hours and it's an epic Sunday when you see other fixtures like Everton vs Liverpool, Aston Villa vs B'gham and Newcastle United vs Sunderland. 


What makes this game an interesting contest is the contrast between United's away form and Spurs's home form. United have only won twice and drawn 7 times away from home which is indeed terrible and on the other hand Spurs have only lost once at home. United need to silent the Yid Army if they want to improve that statistic. If United lose today, Manchester City will remain on top of the premier league table although United has a couple of games in hand after this one. 



What to look forward in the game:
> Ryan Giggs: One club man will mark his 600th league appearances provided he plays in the game! 


> Van Der Sar, Rooney and Vidic are all set to return from injuries. Paul Scholes is although still a doubt after he injured his grown previously.


> The contest between Bale and Rafael would be an interesting one. 
 If Rafael could keep Bale at Bay as he did at Old Trafford, it would be terrific for United. Bale is the dangerous man. As simple as that. Both Rafael and Bale exhibit great talent and future with their teams. 


Spurs have won none and lost 15 of their last 19 Premier League games against Man Utd


> Chicharito has scored 6 goals in the last 8 Premier League appearances when he has played 20 minutes or more 




After much media hype, Redknapp is finally considering abandoning the bid for David Beckham. 




Prospective Squad for today's fixture:
VDS
Rafael Vidic Rio Evra
Nani Fletcher Anderson Giggs
Berba Rooney


Predicted Score: 2-1 United to win.
