Ten Hag explains United XI to take on Tottenham

The same eleven Reds who started at Old Trafford on Monday evening, in the opening 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, will do so in North London where the hosts are playing their first competitive home game under new manager Ange Postecoglou.

Lisando Martinez has therefore lived up to Ten Hag's pre-match assessment that he would be fit to face Spurs, despite being withdrawn at half-time in the Wolves game. The Argentinian will be alongside fellow World Cup winner Raphael Varane, the former France international, at the centre of United's defence while Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw again operate as the full-backs.
