THE LOWDOWN

MAN CITY

  • Despite leading by a goal to nil at Old Trafford, Man City ended up losing 2-1 against Man Utd on Saturday in controversial circumstances, specifically related to the hosts’ equaliser.
  • The result sees Pep Guardiola’s side now trailing Premier League leaders Arsenal by eight points, with the two teams set to meet in mid-February.

TOTTENHAM

  • Last weekend saw Tottenham fall five points adrift of the top four after they were beaten in North London Derby 0-2 by Arsenal, their second loss in three Premier League fixtures.
  • Antonio Conte will be hoping that midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur is passed fit for this one, whilst Lucas Moura continuing to miss out through injury.

THE TEAM NEWS

MAN CITY

PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Ederson; Walker, Akanji, Laporte, Cancelo; De Bruyne, Rodri, Bernardo Silva; Alvarez, Haaland, Foden

UNAVAILABLE: Stones (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Dias (Fitness)

TOTTENHAM

PREDICTED XI (3-4-3): Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Doherty, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Perisic; Kulusevski, Kane, Son

UNAVAILABLE: Moura (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Bentancur (Fitness)

THE PREDICTION

Both these two teams are coming off the back of damaging derby defeats and neither can afford another loss here, Man City for the sake of their title ambitions and Tottenham for the sake of their top four hopes. Matches at the Etihad Stadium between these sides normally result in goals and with three points so important for both here, it would be no surprise to see an open game that leads to plenty of chances at either end. Therefore, back over 2.5 goals to be scored for what would be the 11th time in 12 Premier League fixtures between Man City and Tottenham in Manchester.

TIP: OVER 2.5 GOALS
