Manchester United will face their first trip to a 'big six' team this season this weekend when they travel to Tottenham Hotspur.
United got their season up and running, albeit with difficulty, thanks to a 1-0 victory over Wolves on Monday night, however, it was far from smooth sailing for Erik ten Hag's men. It was a rough opening night for United but disaster was averted thanks to some bemusing officiating after a misjudged 97th minute challenge from new goalkeeper Andre Onana on Sasa Kalajdzic was deemed not to be a penalty.
Wolves were incensed after the penalty was not given which resulted in the Midlands club receiving an apology from the PGMOL. United rode their luck against Wolves and despite being rescued by a second-half goal by Raphael Varane, Ten Hag will not have been happy with what he saw and so all eyes will be on how his side approaches the game in North London this weekend.
