Reporting for duty

Let's focus on this man for a second.

Erik ten Hag has won the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup during his two-year spell at Old Trafford so far but the pressure is on again.

United have started the season slowly and despite some improvements in play style, his side look toothless in attack.

Will he be given time by the hierarchy to turn the ship around? Today's result could go a long way to deciding that...

Also - Erik, loving the flat cap.

Son ruled out

We'll start with a big bit of breaking news.

Tottenham will be without Son Heung-min this afternoon, as revealed by Mail Sport in the past hour or so.

He is believed to be struggling with a hamstring complaint.

Son came off against Qarabag in mid-week.

Afternoon!

Welcome along, all! How are you?

I've been looking forward to this one all day.

It's Manchester United vs Tottenham, two of the Premier League's great titans, up against each other at Old Trafford.

Erik ten Hag will be desperate for a good result after a sluggish start to the season for United while Ange Postecoglou will want a win, too.

Stay tuned right here for all the build-up and regular updates!
