Preview
The Premier League season is nearing its conclusion, and from this point onward, every single week will be important to the teams vying for the title or a European spot. But Week 33 will play a major role in the outcome of both races, mainly due to the top clash between Spurs and United on Sunday.
If Tottenham lose and Leicester City beat Sunderland, the title race will be as good as over. Even if Arsenal beat West Ham United and win their match in hand, they'll still trail the Foxes by eight points with just five matches to go.
United are gunning for a spot in the top four, and a loss at White Hart Lane combined with a Manchester City win over West Bromwich Albion would hand the Citizens a four-point lead.
Speaking to the Manchester Evening News (h/t Goal's Matthew Galea), Marouane Fellaini admitted Sunday's clash will be huge:
"It's a big, big game.
Tottenham are near the top of the table. But it’s a huge game for us as well.
We want to be in that top four. A club like Man United has to play Champions League so we will go there and do our best to try and win the game.
The quality we have we can beat anyone, and I think we’ve shown that.
But we have to be there in the right moment. We will do our best on Sunday and hopefully we can get there.
"
Spurs and United will enter the contest with the two best defences in the Premier League―the only two units to concede fewer than 30 goals this season, per WhoScored.com―putting the pressure on both teams' forwards.
That means Spurs should have the advantage, as Harry Kane has been excellent in the last few weeks.
Per Squawka Football, the England international enjoyed a phenomenal month of March:

Sunderland are winless in their last five and have drawn their last four, but the Black Cats have proved their worth against the stronger Premier League teams this season and beat United 2-1 for their last win.
The team is quickly losing ground on Norwich City in the race to avoid relegation, and manager Sam Allardyce's troops are expected to fight for their lives when they host Leicester City.
The Foxes have won five of their last six and are on the verge of completing one of the biggest Cinderella runs in Premier League history―per Alex Shaw of ESPN FC, the title could be theirs as early as next week:
Now is not the time to get complacent, however. Sunderland are fighting for their lives, and expect them to give the Foxes a real challenge in Week 33.
Two consecutive draws have seen West Ham drop below the Red Devils in the Champions League race, and the Hammers will be out for a big result against Arsenal, who need to win to keep up with Leicester and Tottenham in the title race.
Liverpool host Stoke City in a pivotal match with an eye on next year's UEFA Europa League, and Chelsea will travel to Wales to take on Swansea City.
