Andre Villas-Boas: 'Winning at Manchester United will be tough'

Tottenham Hotspur manager Andre Villas-Boas has admitted that winning against Manchester United at Old Trafford will be "extremely difficult".

Spurs could make it a fourth consecutive win in four competitive matches when they take on the Red Devils in the Premier League on Saturday.

"That is the way I like my teams to play," said Villas-Boas when asked whether Spurs would be attacking United.

"We obviously know that it is extremely difficult there, but that doesn't mean that you might not be given a chance when you play that way."

Tottenham are currently eighth in the league table with eight points from five matches.
