Plenty of Tottenham Hotspur fans have been left concerned after upcoming opponents Manchester United received a potential boost.

This weekend, Spurs will host the Red Devils at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in what could be a tricky fixture. Although United’s form is not particularly strong – they have failed to win their last four Premier League games – Nuno Espirito Santo’s men also come into the match having suffered defeat in their last league outing.

To complicate matters for the home team, according to a report by French publication L’Equipe, Raphael Varane and Anthony Martial look set to return to the game. The article explains that both players returned to training this week and could be in the squad for the trip to London.
