Tottenham’s Old Trafford record tells a clear story ahead of Man United clash

Wait 5 sec.

Tottenham will be aiming for their first Premier League win of the season when they face Man United after the September break, though their poor record at Old Trafford suggests that the wait for a victory this season could continue.In ten days, Tottenham Hotspur will be back in action in the Premier League with a clash against Manchester United. Spurs head into that encounter at the foot of the Premier League table following a winless start to life in the 2026/27 season. Tottenham’s run of no wins, two draws, three defeats, two goals scored and eight conceded makes this their worst ever start to a Premier League campaign, while it is also Roberto De Zerbi’s worst ever managerial start in the competition.The hope will be to improve on performances once football resumes following the end of the September international break. Several Spurs stars who jetted off across the continents have impressed, and De Zerbi will be hoping they carry that form back to the club.However, a clash against United is not going to be easy as the Red Devils are also looking to bounce back.Photo by Michael Regan/Getty ImagesTottenham face Man United test at Old TraffordUnited have also not been at their best this season and have picked up five points from their first five Premier League games. Their opening fixtures included matches against newly promoted Hull City, Ipswich Town, Manchester City, Fulham and Everton.Hull and ten-man Manchester City beat Michael Carrick’s side, who drew with Fulham and Everton in that run while also beating Ipswich. The poor start has invited pressure on the United boss as well as Roberto De Zerbi, with the game on 10 October already being dubbed ‘El Sackiko’.Ahead of that match-up, Spurs Web has decided to take a look at the head-to-head record between Tottenham and Manchester United in the Premier League.The two sides have met 68 times in the English top flight, but it is United who have come out on top the most, with the Red Devils winning 40 of those games, while Spurs have won 13 and 15 have ended in draws.Tottenham and Man United Premier League head-to-headMatchesUnited winsDrawsSpurs winsUnited goalsSpurs goals6840151311471Spurs struggle to change Old Trafford recordHowever, while United hold the historical advantage, the record looks a lot tighter in recent encounters.
