Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is expecting a serious reaction from Tottenham on Thursday after their damaging 6-1 loss to Newcastle.

Spurs' crushing defeat resulted in the sacking of acting head coach Christian Stellini, with the 48-year-old spending less than a month in charge after replacing Antonio Conte.

Tottenham, with Ryan Mason as their caretaker boss, next face United, who are fourth in the Premier League – six points clear of Spurs and with two games in hand.

Erik ten Hag's team are still eyeing a Cup double, after Sunday's FA Cup semi-final penalty shoot-out win over Brighton at Wembley, having already lifted the League Cup this season.
