Manchester United will look to continue its fine form under interim boss Michael Carrick when it welcomes Tottenham to Old Trafford on Saturday.
The Red Devils have won three games in a row since Carrick replaced Ruben Amorim last month, registering victories against Manchester City, Arsenal and Fulham.
A win over Spurs will ensure United keeps its spot inside the top four of the Premier League, irrespective of what happens elsewhere over the weekend.
As for Tottenham, it goes into the game without a win in its last six Premier League games, although Thomas Frank's men did come from two goals down to rescue a draw against Manchester City last time out.

What the managers said
Michael Carrick on Tottenham's threat and United's winning run: "They (Tottenham) certainly bring a challenge. The way they finished the game [against City] the other day, they’ve had, over a period, players injured, a lot of changes to the team, which makes things more difficult.
“They’re getting players back, they have really good attackers that look to stretch the backline and play forward and attack the box an awful lot. A slightly different game to what we’ve played in recent weeks, but we’re looking forward to it.
“We are in a good place. The boys have worked well again this week. Feet on the ground, let’s not get carried away. It’s about what’s next. Big challenge ahead.”
Thomas Frank on Michael Carrick's start at United: “I think he has had a great start. It seems like there was injected a little bit of energy into the team.
"I think it looks like some of the players are in a good place. We know the threats that I also think they posed before from Bryan Mbeumo, Amad, Cunha and Bruno Fernandes, he’s getting this team ticking.
"He has done that the last, I don't know, four or five years. It has been incredible. It is a threat, it is a challenge, but we are looking forward to it.”
