Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur: Both Teams To Score: No (+158)

When Manchester United host Tottenham Hotspur, the trend suggests a low-scoring affair might be on the cards. The Red Devils are struggling to find their rhythm lately, averaging just 1.6 goals in their last five matches. Their recent home form shows a respectable average of 2.6 goals scored, but they’ve often relied on set pieces rather than open play. Conversely, Tottenham have been in disarray, managing a mere 0.4 goals per game recently, with their last five outings yielding just two goals total. Neither side has shown any significant xG threat either, with both teams posting a stagnant average of zero xG in their last five matches. Given these attacking struggles and a defensive mindset likely to dominate, betting on "No" for both teams to score seems a prudent choice. This matchup could very well be a tight, scoreless battle, echoing the teams’ recent form.
