Manchester United will be targeting a return to winning ways when they welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.
United, who have failed to win any of their last three meetings with the Londoners, played out a second successive draw on Wednesday night, drawing 1-1 with FC Twente in their Europa League opener. Christian Eriksen opened the scoring with a brilliant strike but the Reds were pegged back with just over 20 minutes left on the clock.
Despite producing what could only be described as a regressive performance, it did extend their unbeaten run to four matches. However, they will have to produce something much better against Ange Postecoglou's troops to get back to winning ways.
United head into the clash with Spurs, who are also currently locked on seven points, without any fresh injury concerns from their midweek stalemate. It means manager Erik ten Hag could shuffle his pack in the hope of getting a response out of his players.
However, Andre Onana is expected to keep his place in goal. He will be targeting a third successive Premier League clean sheet after recently keeping both Southampton and Crystal Palace at bay.
As far as the back-four is concerned, Ten Hag has deployed the same quartet in defence for each of United's last three league games and is unlikely to change it this weekend. It means Matthijs de Ligt should return in place of Harry Maguire after being named on the bench against Twente.
United are still stretched in the full-back department, meaning Noussair Mazraoui and Diogo Dalot should start at right-back and left-back, respectively, once again.
In midfield, Ten Hag, once again, has a puzzle to try and solve. Manuel Ugarte made his second start for the club against Twente and was partnered by Eriksen, who scored his third goal in as many games, but was later guilty of committing an error in the build up to Twente's leveller.
Kobbie Mainoo is likely to return to the starting line up against Spurs, meaning Eriksen, after four successive starts, could be sacrificed. Ugarte will be itching to make his first league start for the club and embed himself in United's first-choice midfield.
Bruno Fernandes, despite the poor nature of his performance on Wednesday evening, is almost guaranteed to retain his place at the tip of the midfield.
Ten Hag also faces a dilemma in the wide areas. Marcus Rashford was recalled against Twente and was one of United's better performers, meaning he should retain his place on the left.
Pre-match, Ten Hag cited the left-wing as Alejandro Garnacho's best role, meaning Amad could once again retain his place on the right. Rasmus Hojlund could bag his first start of the season after making a second successive appearance via the bench against Twente.
