Tottenham vs Man United prediction
Spurs are just about the favourites going into this match, where that much alluded trophy is just three wins away.
Using the Premier League as a guide to how these two will fare, it actually makes it tougher given both sides have roughly the same unpredictable form.
They can win well one game against a strong side, then struggle against a side in the mid to bottom of the table and vice versa.
Tottenham sit in tenth while Man United are only one point behind in 13th, but that makes worse reading than the reality, that there’s only a handful of points from 5th-13th.
But as all sides in that are all picking up wins still and losing occasionally, no team is actually forging a gap.
As a result, this cup competition could be one of the better chances this seaosn to pick up a trophy, of which Ruben Amorim will be keen to impress in his first season with the club while Tottenham are always keeping a close eye on a potential cup.
These two sides often score plenty against each other and trade wins too, making this a tough game to predict, but hopefully if they follow the trend of goals, there’s value in some bet builders.
Tottenham vs Man United betting tips
For the bets it looks like there’s great potential from a few stand out players that could continue their impressive form.
Amad Diallo was the difference between a loss against Man City and the comeback win that he started and finished on Sunday evening.
He’s sure to be involved again and rewarded with much more game time going forward by Amorim, making him a great price to score on Thursday night.
Goals are commonplace between these two sides with recent results reading 2-2, 3-2, 3-1, 6-1, 3-0 and Tottenham’s last two games in the Premier League have been big scorers of 5-0 and 3-4.
There’s only been a handful of games between these two sides that haven’t ended with over 3.5 goals which does pay out significantly more.
Yves Bissouma is often in the mix for a card and up against Man United he will be lucky to come away without a booking, as plenty of players are able to draw fouls.
Dejan Kulusevski made his 100th Premier League appearance on Sunday against Southampton and capped it off with a goal in their convincing 5-0 victory.
He can be amongst the action again as a top playmaker or hit the net as he has in his last two outings in the league.
