Jose Mourinho thinks Tottenham are the best team in the Premier League
Manchester United host Tottenham at Old Trafford in a game which could go some way to determining both teams top-four hopes.
A win for Spurs would see them leapfrog Manchester City into fourth spot.
However, United are nine points adrift of the Champions League places and cannot afford to lose points to Mauricio Pochettino's side.

And prior to kick-off Jose Mourinho acknowledged the importance of the fixture, branding Spurs the best team in the league.
"Tottenham are the best team in the Premier League," Mourinho told Sky Sports.
"They're the most complete team. The best defence but lots of quality in attacking areas."
Pochettino's side have lost just once all season - a record matched only by Arsenal.
However, like United, the north London club have been guilty of drawing too many games.
Spurs have drawn four of their last 10 league games, seeing them slip to fifth place in the table.
