Manchester United are unbeaten in their last four Premier League games after a dismal start to the season, but it could be tough against a well-trained Spurs side.
Nousair Mazraoui has impressed as a United player and should be able to return to the defense at the expense of Luke Shaw when he is fully fit.
Offensively, Benjamin Sesco hasn’t done enough to keep his place in the starting lineup, although he hasn’t scored in the last three games. Mason Mount has been appointed as a winger, with Matheus Cunha expected to move into a central role.

For United to win the game against Tottenham, Amad needs to start at wing-back, which he absolutely can do. Amad’s arrival brings dynamism and the drive to play up front, as the Red Devils looked positive in another big game against Chelsea.
The introduction of Mason Mount in place of Benjamin Sesco could add to the balance of the squad, with Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven, the best centre-back duo in the league, potentially dominating the team.
Nousser Mazraoui could very well play in place of Diogo Dalot, although the latter has a growing understanding with Mount and Mateusz Cunha that could give him the nod.

It was the left wing-back who made the big decision for Manchester United against Tottenham. Ruben Amorim will probably stick with Diogo Dalot, but I would remove him in favor of Nouser Mazraoui. I would choose the Moroccan over Patrick Dorg to focus on limiting the threat of Mohamed Kudus and Pedro Polo.
Another focus is whether Benjamin Sesco will start. They could either keep the Slovenian on the bench and put Mateus Cunha in the middle with Mason Mount on the left, as he did at Anfield last month, or they could start Sesco with Cunha and Brian Mbeumo on either flank. Personally, I think I’ll start Sesco again as much as he struggled to get into games at Nottingham Forest.
He is taller than Sergio Romero and Micky van de Ven, and his strong hold-up play against them can be crucial on the counter-attack. He also adds another significant threat in the air at set pieces, something Mount cannot match. Other than that, it’s the same as Forest’s draw.
