United to claim Spurs in second half
At the moment, the Red Devils look too strong for chasing Chelsea and it's mainly down to their impressive performances away from Old Trafford.
Spurs should beware. United have won 26 points from a possible 36 on their travels and have emerged the victors in their last five games at the Lane.
Martin Jol's side seemed to be on the verge of something special early in the season but it's all gone pear-shaped recently, especially at home.
They hadn't been beaten there since August but that run came to an end at the end of December when Liverpool won 1-0 and they've since managed to lose
3-2 to Newcastle, which takes some doing.
Add to that a two-legged defeat in the Carling Cup semi-final by Arsenal's second eleven and you can see why confidence is low.
Injuries to key players adds further to their woes.
Skipper and defensive lynchpin Ledley King continues to struggle with a foot injury, striker Dimitar Berbatov (six goals already at home in the Premiership this term) has a groin problem and Aaron Lennon missed out in midweek through illness.
So it's difficult to put forward a case for anything other than a United win - so we won't even try.
We will take some of Betterbet.com's offer of 10/3 for United to win after the game being drawn at the interval.
