"Very close": Mark Lawrenson makes prediction on Manchester United v Tottenham

  Manchester United will be on action for their next Premier League clash against Tottenham. The two sides will face each other at Old Trafford on Sunday evening, while ahead of the clash BBC Sport pundit Mark Lawrenson has given his prediction. He believes United will beat the Spurs with a score of 2-1.

"It's not just United's back four which is a problem - it is the protection, or lack of it, in front of them that really astonished me against Brighton.

Brighton were allowed to play in and around United's 18-yard box, which I could not understand. Solskjaer has got to find a better balance in his midfield because, yes, they were great going forward - but they look like they are going to concede goals too.

Spurs created plenty of chances against Newcastle last weekend, but could not beat Newcastle goalkeeper Karl Darlow. I am going with United because of their attacking power, but it is going to be very close," pundit said.
