Both sides find themselves in the unfamiliar position of the bottom half of the table, with United only taking three points this season and Spurs one more in what have been unimpressive starts to the campaign.

Attention quickly returns to the Premier League though, with Spurs looking to pull clear of the top-four rivals. Follow the live updates below.
