Man United would temporarily move up to second in the Premier League table with a win over Tottenham Hotspur this weekend.

Manchester United travel to Tottenham Hotspur this lunchtime looking to make it five games unbeaten ahead of the November international break.

Last time out United were disappointed to come away with just a point from Nottingham Forest having been in front at half-time. Amad's late volley rescued a point for United after a spirited second-half comeback from the hosts.

MEN Sport's United writers have had their say on who they think should start this weekend.

Ruben Amorim has strong options in defence and Lisandro Martinez will strengthen that department further when he returns to the matchday squad, but Luke Shaw, Matthijs de Ligt and Leny Yoro are the best trio to pick.

The only change I would make after Nottingham Forest would be naming Diogo Dalot on the bench. He was poor again at the City Ground and Patrick Dorgu should come into the side, despite being unconvincing.

Some fans will want to see Mason Mount start down the middle this afternoon. Benjamin Sesko has drawn a blank in the last two matches, but he looked sharp at times last weekend and more goals should come.

United were not as good as in recent weeks against Forest but Amorim should not look to make wholesale changes. The one change he should make is at left wing-back.

Dalot suffered in the East Midlands and Dorgu is the logical replacement for him. Otherwise, it should be an unchanged side from last weekend.

Amad and Bryan Mbeumo's partnership on the right has been a big positive in recent weeks. It is only right they continue together on that side.
