Gary Neville makes bold prediction for Tottenham Hotspur match | OneFootball

Gary Neville has made a bold prediction ahead of Manchester United’s Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

Man United will be looking for three points against Spurs in front of the Old Trafford, particularly after hitting a slump in form.

After being held to a goalless draw against Crystal Palace last weekend despite dominating the game, United once again disappointed during their Europa League match against FC Twente, throwing away their lead to draw 1-1.

Despite failing to live up to their potential so far this season, club legend Gary Neville is refusing to lose faith in United just yet.

“I think Man United are winning that game,” Neville admitted, expressing confidence in his United’s ability to secure the win despite their struggles to score in recent games.

“They struggle to score goals, Man United, but I just think Sunday, it will be a good atmosphere, and Tottenham is always a good game at Old Trafford. I will go 2-1 Man United,” the former club captain concluded.

Neville’s faith will surely be appreciated by manager Erik ten Hag, particularly as frustration aimed at him and his tactics continues to mount.

While Christian Eriksen managed to score an impressive goal against Twente, the team was largely ineffective in front of goal, failing to convert any of their other 19 shots against visibly weaker opposition.

Following the 1-1 draw, pundits and reporters alike hit out at Ten Hag, with Ruud Gullit claiming that the United manager has no recognisable playing style after being in charge for a little over two seasons.

Even more troubling for Ten Hag is that concerns about his ability to take the club forward appear to now be evident from within his own club.

Yesterday, The Peoples Person relayed that United are already looking at potential replacements as Ten Hag continues to struggle to turn United’s fortunes around.

Ultimately, a victory against Spurs might be more crucial for Ten Hag than it may seem on the surface. Should Sunday’s game end in disappointment, the calls for Ten Hag’s dismissal will surely only be amplified.
