Liverpool vs. Watford
Liverpool escaped Old Trafford with a vital point, but manager Jurgen Klopp will be concerned his forwards have lost form at the wrong time.
The Reds had only one shot on target at United on Sunday, and the Merseysiders do not appear to be as fluent as they did earlier in the season.
Klopp's defence remains intact, though. The leadership of Virgil van Dijk is as important as ever, and the Netherlands international is surely a candidate for a player-of-the-year award at the end of the season.
Liverpool were known for their attacking prowess last season, but it has been the consistency of the back four which has placed the club on the verge of title success.
Despite another clean sheet, Klopp told Sky Sports his side missed an opportunity to claim three points against the Red Devils, who used all three substitutes in the first half of Sunday's encounter due to injuries (h/t BBC Sport):
"On days when United are beatable you have to do it.
"We played around with no speed. We expect to play better football. It is a point at United and everybody feels it could have been more.
"United were favourites before the game, then it all changed and all of a sudden we had something to lose, people start to think if we don't beat this team there is something wrong with us. We are all human beings."
Klopp has remained calm and controlled in public, but the increasingly fine form of Manchester City will not have gone unnoticed at Anfield.
The Premier League champions have won six on the bounce in all competitions, including victory in the Carabao Cup final against Chelsea on Sunday, and they are flexing their muscle with menace at the business end of the season.
City play West Ham at the Etihad Stadium at the same time as Liverpool's game. Neither title challenger can afford to drop points at this juncture.
However, Pep Guardiola's side have been here before, so it is up to Klopp's men to prove they have the staying power in the final stretch.
Prediction: Liverpool win 3-2
Chelsea vs. Spurs
Chelsea and Tottenham are miles apart in their immediate ambitions before Wednesday's derby.
Spurs are desperate to register a win to keep the pace with City and Liverpool at the league summit, while Chelsea are searching for the knowledge to interpret head coach Maurizio Sarri's famed tactics.
The football world watched in disbelief as Blues goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga refused to be substituted in the EFL Cup final on Sunday, with Sarri apoplectic on the touchline. In that moment, Chelsea's depth of problems appeared to manifest itself.
According to BBC Sport, the Blues boss has since said the incident was down to a misunderstanding, but Chelsea must start showing harmony under their coach.
The Blues gave a good performance at Wembley Stadium, but they still appear to be finding it difficult to play "Sarri-ball" successfully.
Chelsea now face a hungry opponent at Stamford Bridge, with Spurs knowing the game is make or break for their title ambitions this term.
Mauricio Pochettino has guided his side into contention once more this season, and with Harry Kane returning from injury, it's not all doom and gloom for the north London outfit after Saturday's loss at Burnley.
However, Spurs are five points behind second-place City, and dropping points at Stamford Bridge could bring the curtain down on their title ambitions prematurely.
Spurs do hold an eight-point advantage over fifth-place Manchester United, and UEFA Champions League qualification is essential to the development of the club as they move into a new stadium.
Pochettino's attention will be firmly fixed on making sure his team are in the right place for the start of next season. Top four must be the singular focus if their title challenge ebbs away.
Prediction: Chelsea win 2-1
