Tottenham welcome Manchester United to north London for an intriguing test at the start of the 2023/24 Premier League season, with both sides looking for three points as an early marker.
Spurs opened their account with a 2-2 draw away at Brentford, but losing Harry Kane to Bayern Munich raises a lot of questions and it remains to be seen who is going to score and create all of their goals following his departure.
United, meanwhile, were poor against Wolves in the opening match, but still managed to walk away with all three points. Erik ten Hag will certainly be happy they won the game, but they'll have plenty to work on if they're to improve their position in the table this term.
Kick-off is at 5.30pm BST. Make sure you know how to watch the Premier League wherever you are.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
