Harry Kane's record vs. Manchester United

As Tottenham Hotspur prepare to welcome Manchester United to Wembley, Sports Mole looks at Harry Kane's previous record against the Red Devils.

Premier League fans will be treated to a blockbuster midweek fixture on Wednesday night when Tottenham Hotspur welcome Manchester United to Wembley.

Fifth-placed Spurs currently sit two points adrift of the Champions League places and eight below their second-placed opponents, who remain in the strongest position of the top-four challengers behind Manchester City.

Spurs are unbeaten in their last eight matches across all competitions but have been held to draws in their past two - including narrowly avoiding a monumental FA Cup upset at Rodney Parade against Newport County.

Harry Kane was Tottenham's saviour that day, and he will once again be expected to pose the biggest threat to United's backline on Wednesday night having already reached 30 goals for the season.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up how he has fared against the Red Devils in the past.

Harry Kane's record vs. Man Utd

Played: 7
Won: 3
Drawn: 1
Lost: 3
Goals: 1
Assists: 0

Kane has only ever scored once against Manchester United, finally breaking his duck against the Red Devils at the end of last season when he scored what proved to be the winning goal in Tottenham's last ever match at White Hart Lane.

The England international added to Victor Wanyama's earlier strike to double his side's lead shortly after half time, and United could only muster a Wayne Rooney goal in reply as Spurs ran out 2-1 winners.

Prior to that goal Kane had gone 512 minutes without scoring against United, although he has never been on the losing side against the Red Devils at home, with all three of his defeats coming at Old Trafford.

Nonetheless, Kane's record of only one goal against United is his worst against any club that he has faced on five or more occasions.

The 24-year-old missed the reverse fixture through injury this season, though, being forced to watch on as Anthony Martial scored the only goal of the game with nine minutes remaining.
