Bet365 have the following odds available for this match:
Tottenham are at 19/4, a draw is at 15/4, and Manchester City are at ½.
Tottenham will start this weekend’s round of fixtures down in sixth place so far on 34 points. They are level and only behind United on goal difference currently, and are six off Chelsea’s pace for the fourth and final UCL slot. They can still make it, but it will take some doing to do so and some consistency as well. With just one win in their last five and only five points in that run, it’s hard to put money on them to start playing that well, truth be told.
Manchester City, on the other hand, will come into this game off the back of another loss to Manchester United, something that keeps on occurring for them. They still ended up in the EFL Cup Final, though, so that was a successful mission, nonetheless. In the PL, they are in second with 51 points to their names. They have won four of their last five and look like they could pull away from Leicester in third now. Still yet, they are 19 adrift of rampant leaders Liverpool, leaving many to ponder the Citizens.
Spurs’ home record this term has been pretty decent thus far. In 12 matches, they have seven wins and two draws. They have lost three times, but in terms of points it’s the fourth best record. In their last five, they have had ups and downs, with three wins and two losses, none consecutively. As for the Citizens, they have taken 25 points from a possible 36 on the road so far, the division’s second best traveling record. In their last five away outings, they have 12 points from four wins, with only a loss at Wolves coming in the middle of that stretch.
Ladbrokes have both sides scoring at 4/7.
Aguero scoring anytime can be had for 1.73 via Betfair.
It’ll be interesting to see how Mourinho approaches this, but you have to feel like he will set up conservatively. If so, City will have the run of the pitch and will eventually pick them off.
Jose Mourinho continues to miss Harry Kane, Ben Davies, and Moussa Sissoko due to injuries. Meanwhile, Danny Rose and Christian Eriksen have departed the club for Newcastle and Inter and Steven Bergwijn has came in from PSV.
With Kane out last season in the UCL, Spurs had to turn to Lucas Moura to be an unlikely hero. But step up he did, scoring some massive goals to lead them to an unlikely Final. May he do so again here, be a hero that is, by adding to the four goals he has this term? Helping him out will Son Heung-Min. The South Koreans superstar has seven goals and assists so far, and City will know all too well what he is capable of with his mix or speed and skill on the ball.
Tottenham have two draws, two wins, and a loss in their last five matches:
1-1 draw at Southampton (FA Cup)
2-1 home win vs Norwich
0-0 draw at Watford
2-1 home win vs Middlesbrough (FA Cup)
0-1 loss at Liverpool
Pep Guardiola will be missing Leroy Sane and Aymeric Laporte as both men continue to seek a return to full fitness. Fernandinho has a 50/50 shot to play due to illness, while Benjamin Mendy is also a doubt due to fitness woes.
Who else was it that stepped up and bailed them out in a tricky fixture at Bramall Lane than their dynamic duo? Sergio Aguero, off the bench against Sheffield United, came on and scored the winner, making it 16 goals in a campaign where injuries have held him back greatly. The ball was provided to him, of course, by Kevin De Bruyne, an exquisite passer of the ball. It was his 15th assist already, seeing him lap much of the Premier League in the process of showing how good and dangerous he is.
Manchester City have a loss, three wins, and a draw in their last five matches:
0-1 home loss vs Manchester United (EFL Cup)
4-0 home win vs Fulham (FA Cup)
0-1 win at Sheffield UnitEdersoned
2-2 home draw vs Crystal Palace
1-6 win at Aston Villa
