Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture
Follow live coverage as Tottenham Hotspur face Manchester United in the Premier League today.
Manchester City are reigning champions after beating Liverpool to the finish line in a neck-and-neck 2021/22 title race where a comeback win on the final day of the season against Aston Villa secured a fourth title in five years for Pep Guardiola's side.
Jurgen Klopp's Reds were on course for a quadruple last season but were forced to settle for just an FA Cup and Carabao Cup win and will return trying to win the title again just as they did in 2020.
It was a dramatic season for Chelsea a year ago with Roman Abramovich now replaced by Todd Boehly as owner in west London. He will want an instant return on his hefty investment at Stamford Bridge while Tottenham, back in the Champions League, will want to kick on once more too.
It's not all about the action at the top though with Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest promoted to the top tier for 2021/22 and hoping to hold their own against the best English football has to offer and avoid the drop.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Good defending! Porro threads a neat ball in behind for Son, who attempts a first-time cut-back from the right. Kane is lurking, but Dalot is on hand to clear.

The visitors are enjoying most of the early possession. Fernandes drops deep to sweep a ball in behind for Rashford, but the forward is correctly flagged offside.

United have lined up as expected, with Shaw playing as a left-sided centre-back as their defensive injury crisis continues. For Tottenham, Richarlison has started from the left, with Son on the opposite flank.

Spurs found themselves 5-0 down within 21 minutes last week – the second-earliest a team has ever gone five goals behind in a Premier League match (after Watford did so in 18 minutes in an 8-0 loss to Manchester City in 2019). It's safe to say the home fans will expect a better start here.

Ten Hag makes one change from the team that started at Wembley, as Sancho replaces Martial. Having missed the FA Cup semi-final through suspension, club captain Harry Maguire is sidelined with an injury sustained in training, but there is more positive news regarding Fernandes. Having been a doubt for this match, the creative midfielder is passed fit and will wear Maguire's armband.

20:05
Few Tottenham players emerged from Sunday's mauling at St James' Park with any credit, but Mason only makes three changes from the final lineup named by Stellini. Spurs return to a familiar 3-4-3 shape as Richarlison and Lenglet replace Sarr and Kulusevski, while Lloris misses out with a hip injury, meaning Forster starts between the sticks. In the Lloris' absence, Kane captains the hosts.

United arrive at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in high spirits, having reached a record-equalling 21st FA Cup final with Sunday's penalty shoot-out victory over Brighton and Hove Albion at Wembley Stadium. While Erik ten Hag's men appear likely to secure a return to the Champions League in the coming weeks, a victory here would surely kill Spurs' slim hopes of catching them, as well as boosting the Red Devils' bid to beat Newcastle United to third place.

Another Premier League game, another new face in the Tottenham dugout. Ryan Mason begins his second interim spell in charge of Spurs, looking to mastermind a response after Sunday's remarkable 6-1 defeat to Newcastle United signalled the end of Cristian Stellini's time as acting head coach. Spurs begin this game in seventh, six points adrift of fourth-placed United having played two additional matches. Mason's men look highly unlikely to force their way into contention for a top-four finish, and they could find themselves out of Europe entirely without major improvements.
