Premier League: Tottenham vs Manchester City Live
Preview: Tottenham vs Manchester City
Tottenham vs Manchester City is scheduled for Tuesday at 7:00pm at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Ange Postecoglou’s team secured a 2-1 victory over Burnley, sending Burnley to the Championship, whiles City briefly took the top spot with a 4-0 win against Fulham.
All eyes will be on North London as Arsenal fans may have to support Spurs in their match against Manchester City. Despite Tottenham’s recent struggles, they managed to secure a crucial 2-1 win over Burnley, keeping their slim hopes of a top-four finish alive. To achieve this, they will need to win their last two games and hope for Aston Villa to falter. Their first challenge comes against a strong Man City team, but Spurs’ recent home record against City suggests they could disrupt their title hopes.
City managed to defeat Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier this season with a 1-0 victory in an FA Cup match in January. A similar outcome in their upcoming game would mark a significant achievement for City, as it would be their fourth consecutive away win without conceding, a record they have never accomplished in the top-flight league. While Pep Guardiola will be aiming for the three points to extend City’s current 21-game unbeaten streak in the league and maintain their lead over Arsenal. City has a reputation for finishing strong towards the end of the season, but they have not won their final away game in the last three seasons, drawing one and losing two.
Head-to-head
In their last three encounters, each team has won one match, with one game resulting in a draw. The most recent meeting saw Man City secure a 1-0 victory in the FA Cup.
Prediction
In Spurs’ Premier League home games, it’s almost certain that both teams will score, but the focus should be on the action near Tottenham’s goal as they struggle to defend effectively. With ongoing issues at left-back and a lack of clean sheets at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium since October, it’s likely that Spurs will finally lose their unbeaten home record against the champions. However, those who dislike Arsenal may not be too concerned about this outcome.
