Tottenham Hotspur vs. Manchester United: Lineups

After worries of a snow-out, Tottenham Hotspur versus Manchester United is very much on. Sir Alex Ferguson, who'll be wanting to avenge defeat at Old Trafford earlier this season, appears to be changing his formation around -- this looks like a 4-4-2 diamond from the visitors, which should prove pretty interesting. Spurs, meanwhile, are without Sandro, out for the season with a knee injury, so Scott Parker gets a start in central midfield alongside Moussa Dembele, with Clint Dempsey helping Jermain Defoe up top.

Should be a good one at White Hart Lane.

Tottenham Hotspur starting lineup (4-4-2): Hugo Lloris; Kyle Naughton, Michael Dawson, Stephen Caulker, Kyle Walker; Gareth Bale, Scott Parker, Moussa Dembele, Aaron Lennon; Clint Dempsey, Jermain Defoe.

Manchester United starting lineup (4<4>2): David de Gea; Patrice Evra, Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic, Rafael da Silva; Phil Jones, Tom Cleverley, Michael Carrick, Shinja Kagawa; Robin van Persie, Danny Welbeck.
