Spurs currently sit in sixth and will be pushing to try and climb up the table before the season comes to a close.

Ahead of the clash, ten Hag has provided injury updates on his squad, including news on Bruno Fernandes, who came off the pitch with an ankle issue during the FA Cup semi-final penalty shootout against Brighton.

What is the latest Man United injury update?

Ten Hag has admitted there is a “question mark” over the fitness of Fernandes.

“We have to see how Bruno Fernandes is, we don’t know yet. Is a question mark. But I think for the rest, we are quite okay,” he said in his latest press conference.

The full list of Man United first team injuries, as cited by Premier Injuries, are as follows:

Lisandro Martinez — ankle/foot injury

Donny van de Beek — knee injury

Raphael Varane — ankle/foot injury
