Yahoo Sports Tottenham XI vs Man United: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, Son injury latest for Premier League today
Tottenham are without Heung-min Son for today’s clash with Manchester United.
The captain limped off after 71 minutes of Thursday night’s 3-0 Europa League win against Azerbaijani outfit Qarabag, with Ange Postecoglou initially revealing the forward was feeling fatigued in his hamstring.

But Postecoglou gave a new update on Friday afternoon saying: “It’s still early days from last night [against Qarabag]. It’s fair to say the boys are fairly tired, the boys who played.
“Apart from Sonny, everyone is OK. Sonny, I don’t think it’s too bad. He wants to train tomorrow. We’ll see how he goes in training tomorrow [Saturday] and see where we for from there. We’ve got another day up our sleeve to give him an extra chance.”
Tottenham will also be without Wilson Odobert, due to a thigh injury, and Richarlison remains sidelined after suffering a setback in recent weeks to a calf injury.
“It’s not ideal that we had a late finish last night and had to play for a long time with 10 men”, Postecoglou said.
“We’ve got some fresh guys as well. Pedro [Porro], [Cristian] Romero, [Rodrigo] Bentancur, [James] Maddison]. We still have some freshness there that can help us.”
