Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur returns to action tonight while Manchester United travel to north London.
Spurs opened their season with a 2-2 draw at Brentford, ushering in the post-Harry Kane era.
Postecoglou has only made two changes but remains in goal tonight with Guglielmo Vicario.
Cristian Romero is ready to start after suffering a blow to the head last week and will work alongside Micky van de Ven in defence.
Pedro Porro comes on for Emerson Royal at right-back but Destiny Udogie retains his place at left.
Oliver Skipp retired from the squad tonight, with Pape Matar Sarr moving into midfield alongside Yves Bissouma and James Maddison.
Richarlison leads the line for Tottenham while Dejan Kulusevski and Son Heung-min support him from wide areas.
Fraser Forster, Davinson Sanchez, Ben Davies, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Giovani Lo Celso, Manor Solomon and Ivan Perisic are on the bench alongside Emerson and Skipp.
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag names an unchanged side from the one who defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0 on Monday night rather unconvincingly.
Andre Onana starts in goal with a back four consisting of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Luke Shaw in front of him.
Casemiro will sit in defensive midfield, ahead of Mason Mount and Bruno Fernandes.
Alejandro Garnacho and Antony start on the outside again, Marcus Rashford through the middle.
Jadon Sancho is only on the bench despite a brilliant cameo against Wolves, joining Dean Henderson, Radek Vitek, Diogo Dalot, Victor Lindelof, Christian Eriksen, Scott McTominay, Facundo Pellistri and Anthony Martial.
