Tottenham vs Man City: Match Preview

Spurs are on the fringes of a top-four battle and would see their job complicated by defeat to a City side who cannot afford another slip-up if they are to maintain the pressure on Arsenal in the race for the Premier League title.

These two only met a few weeks ago in a re-arranged game from a previous postponement that ended with a 4-2 victory to City, who had to come from two goals down to secure their three points.

Team News:

Tottenham:

Richarlison is expected to recover from injury to make the bench and offer cover for striker Harry Kane, who has shaken off the illness that kept him out of the FA Cup victory over Preston.

Lucas Moura and Pape Matar Sarr are both expected to be unavailable but their could be an immediate debut for January signing Pedro Porro, who was on the books at City before leaving permanently in 2022.

Spurs will also be led by assistant Cristian Stellini, who is filling in for Antonio Conte while the latter recovers from recent gallbladder surgery.

Man City:

John Stones came off injured last time out and may not be ready to start just yet, while Phil Foden has been battling a foot issue which will likely restrict him to a spot on the bench even if he is declared fit.

There will be no Joao Cancelo, who is already assisting for Bayern Munich, but he was unlikely to start over former Spurs man Kyle Walker or young Rico Lewis even before leaving the club.

Tottenham vs Man City: Head to Head

Manchester City have a slight edge over Tottenham Hotspur and have won 66 out of the 167 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Tottenham Hotspur's 65 victories.

Tottenham Hotspur lost the reverse fixture last month by a 4-2 margin and last lost both league matches against Manchester City in a single season in the 2018-19 campaign.

Manchester City have lost their last three away Premier League games against Tottenham Hotspur by an aggregate 5-0 margin and have never failed to score in four consecutive away league games against a single opponent.

Predicted Line-ups:

Tottenham (3-4-2-1): Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Porro, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Perisic; Kulusevski, Kane, Son

Man City (4-3-3): Ederson; Walker, Akanji, Laporte, Ake; Gundogan, Rodri, De Bruyne; Mahrez, Haaland, Grealish
