Preview: Tottenham Hotspur vs. Manchester United

Tottenham Hotspur will look to end a dismal record against Manchester United when the Red Devils visit White Hart Lane on Sunday.

Spurs have failed to record a win over United in 25 attempts, losing 19 of those since 2001, but are having a strong season in the Premier League.

Harry Redknapp's men are comfortably third and will look to close the gap on the top two Manchester clubs.

Scott Parker, who captained England on Wednesday, will miss out because of his red card against Arsenal last weekend while, for the visitors, Wayne Rooney has overcome a throat infection and will feature.

Current league form:

Spurs: DLWDWL United: WWWDWW

Possible lineups:

Spurs: Friedel; Walker, King, Kaboul, Assou-Ekotto; Sandro, Modric, Bale, Kranjcar; Saha, Adebayor

United: De Gea; Jones, Ferdinand, Evans, Evra; Nani, Scholes, Carrick, Giggs; Rooney, Hernandez

Sports Mole says: 2-2
