Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson claims the trip to Tottenham is one of the most important his side will face this season. Trailing Premier League leaders Liverpool by six points, Ferguson feels the Red Devils cannot afford to fall any further behind.
"It is one of our most important games of the season," said the United chief.
"We have a great record down there and hopefully we still will have after Saturday."
United have won six out of seven at Spurs, but under Harry Redknapp have had a resurgence of form.
"Tottenham are in good form," said the Scot.
"They played well on Monday and had control of the game, so I am expecting a close contest and a good match.
"It always is against Tottenham. It is a game that people look forward to because there is usually a quality about it, particularly at White Hart Lane, and there quite often a few goals."
