Man United have only lost three times in the Premier League this season but the wins tally before facing Spurs stood at just five as many as Bournemouth and Burnley and one fewer than Watford
Henrikh Mkhitaryan's first Premier League goal gave Manchester United victory over top four rivals Tottenham.
United, still six points behind fourth placed Manchester City, led when Mkhitaryan raced on to Ander Herrera's through ball and hammered into the roof of the net.
Victor Wanyama should have levelled with a header from six yards out, although visitors Spurs created few chances despite plenty of possession.
Paul Pogba almost made it more comfortable for Jose Mourinho's side when he hit a free kick against the post, but United ended a run of three games without a win in the league.
The game ended in disappointment for Mkhitaryan, who was taken off on a stretcher with an ankle injury in the final 10 minutes at Old Trafford.
Spurs missed the chance to replace Man City in fourth and remain fifth, three points above United
