Ronaldo and Cavani start, 3-5-2: confirmed Man Utd XI vs. Tottenham

Manchester United are back in Premier League action this afternoon as they make the trip to fellow strugglers Tottenham Hotspur, who find themselves in a similar position in the table.

The loss to Liverpool has provoked a host of changes from Solskjaer, with Cavani and Varane replacing Rashford and Greenwood as the Norwegian switches to a three-at-the-back formation.
