Tottenham Hotspur will play at their spiritual home for the first time this season on Sunday when high-flying Manchester United provide the opposition.

The Lilywhites last featured at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on the final day of last season when they defeated Leicester City 1-0 thanks to a second half goal from Ashleigh Neville. Spurs won both of their games in N17 last season but this weekend’s fixture against Manchester United will be a tougher assignment.

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Rehanne Skinner is again set to be without long-term absentees Kit Graham, Ria Percival, Kyah Simon, Ellie Brazil and Ramona Petzelberger for her side’s latest match. The condition of both Jess Naz and Cho So-hyun is not known.

Manchester United head coach Marc Skinner is expected to have good squad availability ahead of the trip to North London, Jayde Riviere and Lisa Naalsund being the only absentees. Skinner is not expected to implement many changes to his side despite The Red Devils having struggled to convert their chances in recent weeks. They had 25 shots on goal but failed to convert any of them as they drew 0-0 with Everton last weekend.

The Barclays Women’s Super League fixture between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United is scheduled to kick-off at 12pm on Sunday afternoon. Tickets remain on-sale and can be purchased by clicking here.
