Confirmed United XI vs. Tottenham Hotspur: Antony and Eriksen start

Manchester United are set to take on Tottenham Hotspur in North London, in the quarter-final of the Carabao Cup later tonight.

United have won 13 major trophies since Tottenham’s last EFL Cup triumph, including this competition in the 2022/23 season.

They secured the title by defeating Newcastle United in the final, marking their first silverware under the recently dismissed manager Erik ten Hag.

The last time the Red Devils played Spurs in the League Cup was in the 2009/10 quarter-final, which ended in a 2-0 win at Old Trafford. Sir Alex Ferguson’s men went on to lift the trophy that year, beating Aston Villa 2-1 in the final.

Similar to Ten Hag, the EFL Cup offers Amorim a strong opportunity to secure his first trophy in his debut season as United manager.

Amorim has named Antony and Christian Eriksen in his starting XI
