Tottenham vs. Manchester United: Match Prediction
Both teams have had a disappointing season, sitting in the lower half of the table and are not in contention for European spots. While both sides concede often, Tottenham has a significant advantage in attack, having scored 20 more goals than Manchester United. I believe that Tottenham's superior attacking line will help them avoid defeat in the upcoming match.
Interestingly, in the first half of the season, Ange Postecoglou's men defeated their opponents 3-0 at Old Trafford. Moreover, Tottenham has not lost in their last three Premier League encounters and has scored two goals in each of these matches. It's worth noting that Manchester United has conceded at least two goals in 6 of their last 8 league games. Therefore, my prediction is Tottenham Individual Total Over 1.5.
