00:05: Under twelve hours to go until Spurs meet United at White Hart Lane for their final match of the first half of the season. You can check out our predictions for the match here, but feel free to let us know you feel it will go in the comments below! 00:09: Last year saw a draw and a Spurs win between the two - the same result as the year before. Not the most cheery period for Fergie, Moyes or Giggsy! 00:30: Prior to these results, Spurs had not beaten United since May 2001. In that time we have seen some memorable games, none more so than on 29th September 2001. 01:38: It's about twenty-to-one and I can't sleep, so of course it's time for my prediction of the Spurs line-up. You're welcome. 10:16: There will be a minutes applause in memory of Spurs' double-winning left-back Ron Henry at the game today. 10:55: Five minutes until the line-ups are announced - this is a season of change, as Spurs haven't been decimated by injuries! The visitors on the other hand... 11:01: Team news! Spurs have gone with something...different... 11:08: Alright zk, where are you? The baying ma**es can't wait too much longer for the United team sheet! 11:42: Okay, I better fill you in on United's team, I guess. 11:48: The teams are out warming up, just over ten minutes to go! 12:00: Alright, here we go! 12:05: Five minutes in and surprisingly both teams look organised at the back. 12:06: The first half-chance of the game falls to Spurs as Harry Kane almost finds himself in on goal. 12:13: After a whole lot of nothing, Spurs have a freekick in a dangerous area. 12:15: Here's a heat map of Rooney's game so far from that deep-lying midfield role. 12:18: Oh dear Falcao.... 12:22: It's been end to end since. First Kane and Townsend having chances for Spurs, then United having an effort cleared off the line! 12:30: For everything that has gone down so far, a goal seems just as likely at either end. 12:34: Falcao with another chance. He cuts onto his right foot but his effort is well saved by Lloris. 12:39: Ohh, Robin! What was that! 12:42: Lloris is already warmed. 12:44: OMG! LLORIS IS A BOSS! 12:45: The ref blows the half-time whistle, and somehow it is still Spurs 0-0 United. 12:55: Let's take a look at the half-time stats. 12:58: Whatever happens now, I'm just really hoping for an in-form Lloris in Ultimate Team. 13:00: Before we start, van Gaal is taking out Valencia for Rafael. 13:07: Lloris catch and yellow card for Young. 13:10: Another chance for RVP but his header goes horribly wide. 13:13: Whoopsie! 13:15: van Persie takes down Vertonghen but gets away without a booking. 13:22: Townsend trying his luck from outside the box! 13:24: Mata... 13:27: Spurs get a foothold into the game as Fazio's strike is saved by De Gea. 13:29: United make their second change as Evans makes way for Smalling. 13:32: United make their final change: Shaw for McNair. 13:34: A dangerous looking freekick for Eriksen, but De Gea was equal to it. 13:35: Spurs make their first changes: Chadli makes way for Dembele and Townsend goes off for Lamela. 13:38: A ma**ive chance for Ryan Mason but he blazes over! 13:40: Rooney hauls down Kane inside the box but nothing is given by Moss, who has made some howling decisions for both sides this afternoon. 13:46: 3 minutes of added time. Can we get a late winner? 13:49: The answer is no. It's all over and both teams keep their unbeaten runs going. 13:53: Thanks for joining us on today - we'll be back for the next meeting at Old Trafford I'm sure!
