  • 81'
    GOAL! United lead! Anthony Martial plays the role of super-sub once again! Route 1 football wins the day as De Gea's free kick is headed on by Lukaku and Martial races through to fire past Lloris.
  • 81'
    Spurs have the ball in the net through Alli but the flag had long since gone up against Aurier.
  • 79'
    Lukaku heads against the post! So close for United! Lingard whips in a great ball from the right and the Belgian is all alone but his header is inches away from giving his side the lead.
  • 77'
    What a chance for Spurs! A beautiful ball form Eriksen into the box sees Alli arrive first but he can't quite guide a prodded effort on target form eight yards.
  • 75'
    Eriksen fires over from range.
  • 74'
    Valencia is booked for going down too easily in the Spurs box.
  • 73'
    Martial is involved again as his flick around the corner sets a move going. That move ends with Lukaku bursting past Vertonghen and drilling an effort at goal that Lloris has to keep out.
  • 71'
    Martial looks to make an instant impact but he fails to connect with an attempted bicycle kick .
  • 70'
    Martial replaces Rashford for United.
  • 65'
    Lingard replaces Mkhitaryan for the hosts.
  • 65'
    Almost a Goal of the Season contender from Antonio Valencia as he fires a powerful drive from the edge of the box just over the bar as Spurs only half-clear a corner.
  • 63'
    Good keeping form Lloris as he races out to intercept a through ball with Lukaku lurking.
  • 62'
    The visitors make a double change, Son is replaced by Llorente, whilst Dembele also comes on for Sissoko.
  • 58'
    A flurry of United corners is cleared away by the visitors.
  • 54'
    United almost make the breakthrough! Good feet from Mkhitaryan allow him to get a shot away and Lloris makes a hash of it, palming it into the path of Rashford six yards out but Ben Davies makes a great challenge to clear the danger. Seconds later a Mkhitaryan cross dribbles past everyone and away to safety.
  • 52'
    Eriksen whips in a cross from the left but is flies over the head of everyone and out for a goal kick.
  • 51'
    Good keeping from Lloris to cut out Young's low cross form the left.
  • 48'
    Better from United as they start the second half. They're getting in Spurs' face more and not letting them play on their own terms.
  • 46'
    Rashford gets us back underway!
  • 45'
    The teams are back with us and we'll be back underway shortly.
  • 45'
    HT: Man Utd 0-0 Tottenham. Nothing between the two sides at the break though it has been a decent enough game for the neutral.
  • 45'
    1 minute added on. Can either side find a goal before the half?
  • 44'
    Oh Dele Alli, just when you think he has turned the corner after electing not to headbutt Ashley Young earlier he hits the deck under challenge from no-one whatsoever. Phil Jones is furious but Spurs have a free kick.
  • 41'
    Dier gets up to meet a corner and when his initial effort is blocked he stabs goalwards once again but De Gea is equal to the effort.
  • 37'
    Alli rises highest to meet a corner from the left and it looks destined but it is somehow blocked away before it reaches goal.
  • 36'
    The visitors have had 68% of possession in the last 10 minutes. The tables have certainly turned here after an impressive start from the hosts.
  • 34'
    Rashford looks to race away from Dier down the left but the former Sporting Lisbon defender makes a great challenge on the stretch to stop the England man in his tracks.
  • 30'
    Aggro! Ashley Young and Dele Alli aren't happy with each other and more than a few words are exchanged. Jon Moss lets the pair off without a booking though.
  • 28'
    A sustained spell of Spurs possession end with a mix-up between De Gea and Jones. The goalkeeper drops the ball in the collision but as the ball makes its way to Sissoko the Frenchman can only fire high and wide from the edge of the box.
  • 27'
    Good defending from Jones to clear from inside his own box under pressure from two white shirts.
  • 24'
    United see themselves denied by the flag on several occasions as they look to counter.
  • 21'
    Alderweireld steps out from the back and fires into the side netting from range. United will need to guard against the Belgian carrying the ball out of defence like that for the remainder of this game.
  • 20'
    Sissoko takes aim from range but it is easy for De Gea.
  • 19'
    A few errant passes from Dele Alli and Marcus Rashford ruin potential attacks for their respective sides. A little bit more care is needed in the final third here.
  • 17'
    Son is crowded out on the edge of the box as he looks to find the space to shoot.
  • 12'
    Lloris is called into action to tip a low Rashford free kick from fully 30 yards around the post.
  • 11'
    File this one under speculative. Aurier takes aim from 30 yards but De Gea could have thrown his cap on it.
  • 10'
    Rashford forces Lloris into a poor clearance but after being put in by Lukaku, he is denied a shot at goal by a great last-ditch tackle from Dier. The ball is recycled and finds its way back to Belgian but his effort is poor and never looks like troubling Lloris.
  • 9'
    Spurs finally get their foot on the ball and make their way into the United half. The game is being played at a good tempo so far, both sides working hard out of possession but also looking bright when they have the ball.
  • 6'
    United making all the early running. Ashley Young drives into the box down the left but his low fizzing cross evades everyone.
  • 2'
    United go close! Lukaku gets in down the left and his low cross is well cut out by Lloris with Rashford waiting at the back post for a tap-in. Decent start form the hosts this.
  • 1'
    Son gets us underway!

    The players are out on the pitch and we'll be underway shortly.

    Jose Mourinho's thoughts pre-game: “I’m not saying we’re playing three at the back. You are saying that. We’re not. We want to win, but we are playing one of the best, if not the best, team in the league. But nothing can stop us thinking we can win. We will try to be dominant and try to win this match. We know we have a difficult job. You know, how does the dynamic change without Ibrahimovic, without Marcus Rojo, Michael Carrick, Paul Pogba, Marouane Fellaini?"

    Pochettino's thought pre-game: “We must retain our philosophy. Harry is one of the best strikers in the world, and of course we are going to miss his quality. But the squad is so important. It’s important to be ready. And we will miss him but the team is ready to compete, to fight and to try to win. Today will be a tough game. Llorente could be a good impact from the bench. Of course they have a lot of injuries, and you always miss your players. But United have a great squad."

    The Premier League table is finely poised:

    Here's how these two have fared recently going in to this one:
