Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has been speaking to BBC Match of the Day after today's defeat: "It was the difference of the game, they scored and we didn't. We had the opportunities. We had situations in transitions, trying to get a result, but in the end they scored and we didn't.

"We want to recover the players, I think we can recover some players for the next game. We have to be together to finish the season and start over."

On the young players on his bench: "It is the hardest competition in the world. I am trying to be careful with them. I felt the team was pushing for the goal and I felt I don't want to change. But they will play.

"You try to read the game, understand what you see in training. The team were pushing for the goal and I didn't feel the need to change.

"I am not worried. I understand our fans, what the media think about it. I hate to lose, that feeling is the worst.

"The rest I am not thinking about. I am here to help my players. I understand my situation, my job, I am confident on my work and I just want to win games.

"The place in the table is my worry - I am not worried about me."

Tottenham are the first side to win three separate games against Manchester United in a single season in all competitions since Chelsea in 2012-13. Spurs have also completed a league double over the Red Devils for the first time since 1989-90 under Terry Venables.

Manchester United have lost 12 of their 25 Premier League games this season, their most defeats from their first 25 matches of a league campaign since 1973-74 (13) – when they were last relegated from the top-flight.

Trying to call this is a bit like a game I used to play with my kids, poker dice, where you roll five dice and it is completely random what you end up with.

This is the first time I have so little idea of what to expect from both sides that I actually think I need to make two predictions, rather than one.

I can guarantee you this, though. Whatever result I go for, it will end up being the opposite of what actually happens.

Tottenham demolished Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford in September but that does not really have any bearing here.

Spurs are getting players back from injury and Timo Werner, James Maddison and Guglielmo Vicario are among those training again, but how fit are they going to be for this game?

Ange Postecoglou says his players are out on their feet and we could see that in their FA Cup defeat at Aston Villa, so a lot depends on how much they have left in the tank.

As for Manchester United, well I've been reading reports this week that some of their players are unhappy with Ruben Amorim's style of play.

There is lots going on off the pitch too, with stories that more redundancies are planned at the club, following controversy over a rise in ticket prices.

Who would have thought when Ineos completed their deal to take a stake in United 12 months ago that, within a year, they could possibly be as unpopular with fans as co-owners the Glazers are.

In regards to Amorim, I just think he needs time. He arrived in mid-season, he has his way of playing and United will have to give him the players who fit that system, so it might take a window or two before we see him with the team he wants.

There needs to be patience there, but we also know football fans are impatient. They want to see some improvement in the short-term, and it is hard to argue they have made any progress since Amorim took charge.

I still have a sneaky feeling they might edge this game but I cannot really tell you what I am basing that on.

This is a big game for Ange too, now his side are out of both domestic cups, but I am going with United, just.

Sutton's prediction: 1-2 or 4-0 [only 1-2 will count as Chris's score]

Sitting 14th and 13th in the Premier League in February is not where either Tottenham or Manchester United would have expected to be at this stage of the season.

But inconsistent form and injuries means the two clubs meet at Tottenham Hotspur stadium on Sunday with few being able to say with any certainty who might come out on top.

While the two sides go head-to-head on the pitch, we asked our fan writers for each club to go head-to-head off it.

Each got to ask three questions of the other. Tottenham fan Anna Howells from Spurs XY, external was asked the following by our United supporter:

• Ange Postecoglou is under intense pressure at the moment. Are you backing him or is it time for Tottenham to hire yet another manager?

• After crashing out of the Carabao Cup and FA Cup, what are your objectives for the rest of the season?

• What scoreline are you predicting against Manchester United on Sunday?

Manchester United fan contributor Dale O'Donnell from United In Focus, external was given the following questions:

• Ruben Amorim is having a tough time, so are you convinced he is the manager to restore past glories?

• Do the fans want Amorim to prioritise the FA Cup over the Premier League and Europe?

• Given the search for a striker and the aging midfield, which area or areas of the pitch is the priority for United in the summer ?
