In the most anticipated match of Sunday, heavyweight squads Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United battle in an important tilt for both sides.
Andre-Villas Boas' squad has had a terrific season thus far and only trails third place Chelsea by two points. The team had a three game winning streak until last week when it lost steam against 20th place Queen Park Rangers. The team was held scoreless for the third time this season despite possessing a solid offense. The squad has scored a solid 39 goals in 22 matches and is led by Jermain Defoe and his 10 goals. Gareth Bale also has nine goals this season.
AVB's rival on Sunday will be Sir Alex Ferguson and his unstoppable Manchester United. Manchester has not lost in 11 matches and has a four game winning streak. In its last premier league match, the team won 2-1 over rival Liverpool. As expected the team got a big goal from Robin Van Persie who has been the squad's MVP with 17 goals and six assists. Wayne Rooney has seven goals and seven draws while Javier Hernandez has rebounded from a tough start to the season to garner eight goals this season.
The last time these teams met, AVB's side earned a tremendous 3-2 win at the Old Trafford. Tottenham will use this confidence to fuel the team and fans at home.
Predictions: Tottenham steals a 2-1 win.
