Manchester United may be playing at home this weekend, but they’re still in for a tough time — they’re hosting a Tottenham Hotspur side that finally seems to be coming out of their autumn-long swoon, a Tottenham Hotspur side who have a major opportunity at hand.

With Spurs’ form stabilizing and United’s arch-rivals Manchester City struggling a bit, Tottenham suddenly find themselves just three points out of fourth place, and with a goal differential advantage over City. A win over United would see Spurs pass City up and put themselves back in the Champions League places in the table, a position they hardly expected to be in this soon after so much recent struggle.
But Manchester United will hardly be eager to roll over and take a loss, even if it hurts their rivals in the process. A loss or draw could push them even further down the table depending on other results Sunday, and Jose Mourinho is already unhappy about how things are going for his team — another failure to win could have a profound impact on how he handles the team, not to mention on his job security.
