At Old Trafford, Man United host Spurs with United looking to continue their recent upturn in form, while Spurs search for much-needed consistency. Even the Ed has brought in a United defender! Around the league, Arsenal face Sunderland at the Emirates as the Gunners aim to extend their lead at the top, while mid-table clashes like Fulham vs Everton, Brighton vs Crystal Palace and Leeds vs Nottingham Forest could prove pivotal in the battle for European qualification and survival.
