End to end. Cristiano Ronaldo almost gets onto Bruno Fernandes' long ball forward but he's well managed by the home defence.

That's not going to catch on Marlo.

Another Edinson Cavani opportunity which comes from the right wing. This time Aaron Wan-Bissaka cuts it back for the junior member of United's front line and his shot is blocked by Eric Dier.

Now AWB lifts a cross over the head of Cristiano Ronaldo.

United's first chance. Bruno Fernandes whips in a cross, Edinson Cavani gets free and glances a header on but Cristiano Ronaldo wasn't behind him to score.

The corner is half-cleared and Giovani lo Celso drags a shot wide from the edge of the box.

First chance of the game as Son Heung-min hammers one in from 20 yards. It's blocked by the toes of Fred and flies wide.

United are very compact at the back as Spurs try to come forward. Just two walls of solid red.

Spurs are dominating the ball in the early stages. Victor Lindelof cuts out Son Heung-min's ball down the line.

Are Edinson Cavani and Cristiano Ronaldo the oldest front pair in Premier League history? A combined age of 70.

Under way between these two teams who'd like to be doing a bit better than they are.

Liverpool

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "It feels like a defeat. It's not only because we were 2-0 up and didn't win, it's because the game I saw, we scored two of the most beautiful goals I've ever seen us score, which were disallowed.

"The pressing goal for Sadio was just unlucky, if you want to teach pressing, you would show this situation. But disallowed for handball, I guess.

"Top moments in the first half where we showed how we can hurt Brighton, played some top passes through the centre and played really good football but were only 2-0.

"In the second half, we were not good enough. The body language I didn't like it all. It was like 'oh my God, it's really tough'. Yeah, it was clear before the game.

"The best way to defend Brighton is to have the ball yourself and play in the spaces where they are exposed, but we didn't do that and that's a problem."

Nuno Espirito Santo is looking to avoid becoming the first Spurs boss to lose five of his first 10 Premier League matches in charge since Christian Gross in 1997-98.

Gross, who took over mid-season, was sacked after less than a year.

Spurs have won just six of their 29 home matches against United in the Premier League (D9, L14).

Manchester United are in danger of suffering three consecutive Premier League defeats for the first time since December 2015.

Their three Premier League defeats in the past four matches is as many as they lost in their previous 37 games (W23, D11).

They have conceded 10 league goals in October so far, more than any other side. They have never conceded more than 11 in one month in Premier League history.

The Red Devils could lose four of their opening 10 games of a top-flight season for the first time since 1990-91.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have kept just one clean sheet in 21 matches in all competitions.

Tottenham boss Nuno Espirito Santo has responded to Spurs' defeat at West Ham last weekend by making two changes for the teatime visit of Manchester United.

Ben Davies is in for Sergio Reguilon at left-back while Giovani Lo Celso replaces Tanguy Ndombele in midfield.

Tottenham XI: Lloris, Emerson Royal, Romero, Dier, Davies, Hojbjerg, Skipp, Moura, Lo Celso, Son, Kane.

Subs: Gollini, Doherty, Reguilon, Sanchez, Rodon, Tanganga, Alli, Ndombele, Bergwijn.

Ole Gunner Solskjaer brings in Raphael Varane and Edinson Cavani as Manchester United also make two changes from their 5-0 humbling at the hands of Liverpool at Old Trafford last weekend.

Varane has not featured since early October after suffering a groin injury in France's Nations League final win over Belgium, while Cavani makes only a second Premier League start of the season as Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood drop to the bench.

Paul Pogba serves the first match of a three-game suspension for his red card against Liverpool.

Man Utd XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Varane, Maguire, Shaw, McTominay, Fred, Bruno Fernandes, Ronaldo, Cavani.

Subs: Henderson, Bailly, Dalot, Matic, Van de Beek, Sancho, Lingard, Rashford, Greenwood.

Watford

Watford boss Claudio Ranieri, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We knew it was a very difficult natch but the first half we were too passive. I wanted to press and stay together,. The second half was much, much better, Southampton work together since 2018 and they played better than us. But second half I am satisfied. We had three chances to draw the match. I want to be more consistent. I don't like up and down. We must work as that is only how you can do something.

"It is difficult to say how long. We try to do something good in training but they must digest the movement. I am confident. Now we lost the points here but I am sure we go to take points in other ways.

"I think we made everything to draw the match. We tried to do our best. It was difficult but the mentality is OK. We make mistakes. I spoke with my players and showed them what we must improve."

Newcastle United

Interim Newcastle boss Graeme Jones told BBC Match of the Day: “For 65 minutes we were right in the game. We had a little spell of momentum just before their first goal and generally I was really pleased. You have to remember that we are up against the Champions League winners and the current Premier League leaders. We were competitive in the game with the way we went about it. It was working up to that point.

“Once the first goal went in that is when the disappointment came from. The manner of the reaction. Three goals in 16 minutes was disappointing because the game was never that wide open.

"Up to 75 minutes we needed to be in the contest. We were competitive. It was a difficult afternoon, I’m not denying that. We don’t want to play that way. It is where we are at this minute in time.”

On talking to the club’s owners about the management job at Newcastle: “I will do all these interviews then go back to the room and see what happens from that point.”

Brentford

Brentford manager Thomas Frank, speaking to Match of the Day: "At half-time we talked about pride and getting back into the game. The second half was better.

"So far we’ve played two bad halves - the second half against West Ham and the first half here against Burnley. If you’re slightly underperforming you get punished very hard. We got punished very hard here today.

"We win or learn. Today we definitely learned, especially in the first half. In the second half we grew into it, even though the dynamic changed a bit in the second half.

"We need to perform much better than we did in the first half."
