Man United vs Tottenham match preview
So now it comes to the last four in the FA-Cup semi finals.. Where Spurs will face Man United in the first semi final at Old trafford today. It is a clash between the second- and third-place teams in the Premier League, with only goal difference separating the sides in their hot pursuit of leaders Manchester City.
Spurs have struggled in their last two outings, losing to Manchester City at Wembley before a draw with Brighton at the AMEX Stadium.
United, however, beat City at Etihad stadium to postpone their Premier League title celebrations, before losing to West Brom to gift the crown to their rivals.
Jose Mourinho has won the FA Cup just once as manager, with Chelsea in 2007, but his United side will be going full-pelt for this trophy and they haven't conceded in this year's competition. United are looking to reach their 20th FA Cup final, equalling Arsenal's all-time record.
While Pochettino has established the club in the top four, he has yet to earn any league or cup titles with them, although they are in the FA Cup final four for the second season in a row.
Team News:-
Jose Mourinho has suggested that he will rotate his XI, following the club's defeat to West Brom, with several newspaper reports claiming that both Alexis Sanchez and Paul Pogba could be dropped.
And when it comes to Spurs, Both Danny Rose and Kyle Walker-Peters are injury doubts, while Harry Winks continues to be sidelined. Michel Vorm has played in every FA Cup game thus far, and may continue after a string of high-profile errors from first-choice Hugo Lloris.
Predicted Lineups:-
Man United:
De Gea; Valencia, Bailly, Smalling, Young; Herrera, Matic, Pogba; Rashford, Lingard, Lukaku
Spurs:
Lloris; Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies; Dier, Dembele; Lamela, Alli, Eriksen; Kane
My prediction: Manu 2 Spurs 1
