Paul Merson now predicts who will win this weekend between Manchester United and Tottenham
Now, Paul Merson has shared his prediction for the crucial Premier League match between Tottenham and Manchester United this coming Saturday.
Spurs and United are vying for a spot in the UEFA Champions League, and both teams have an opportunity to gain significant distance at Old Trafford in the quest for the top four.
Punditerson has now made his prediction for the match, predicting a draw in Manchester between the two teams. He writes for Sportskeeda.
In contrast, Manchester United trails Arsenal by nine points and will have to work hard to qualify for the UEFA Champions League the following year. They haven’t been reliable this season, but they need to win this game to have a chance of placing in the top four.
Manchester United is quite unpredictable, but one thing is certain: when things are tough for them, they usually turn up. I’m going with a 2-2 draw because I think there will be a ton of goals in this game and I’ll be stunned if it goes goalless.
Tottenham can make a statement with Manchester United result
As Merson indicated, a victory over United on Sunday would move Tottenham past their rivals from North London, Arsenal, and into the top four.
A result like that would significantly upend both the competition for the Premier League title, with Mikel Arteta’s team vying for the top spot this year, and the contest for the top four.
And a victory at Old Trafford may be game-changing for Tottenham, given that a lot of supporters and commentators have virtually written off Ange Postecoglou’s team’s chances of success this season following a recent slump in play.
