Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City Preview

Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City

Competition – Barclays Premier League

Stadium – Wembley

Date: 29th October 2018

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

Tottenham host Manchester City as they look to continue to keep pace with their top four rivals, while Manchester City will be looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the season.

Tottenham suffered yet another setback in their quest to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League last week as they were held to a 2-2 draw against PSV.

They now turn their attention to the Premier League as they hope to keep pace with the rest.

Spurs haven’t been discussed as title challengers recently, but the Lilywhites are still just two points behind Manchester City in the league table.

However, apart from a 3-0 win over Manchester United, they haven’t really set the world alight so far.

Tottenham have won their last four Premier League games after being beaten 2-1 at home by Liverpool, so this game should be an interesting one to watch.

Manchester City haven’t really been at their blistering best however they have still maintained an unbeaten start to the season.

They thrashed Burnley 5-0 in an unhappy homecoming for Joe Hart last weekend and that result shows that this team is improving as the season goes on.

Manchester City have scored 26 goals this season and conceded just 3 so far, they also remain unbeaten and it will interesting to see if Spurs can stop them in their tracks.

Manchester City have won their last three meetings against Tottenham Hotspur and haven’t lost since February 2016.

The Citizens have won 10 of their last 15 matches against Spurs.

Bookmakers currently price Manchester City up as odds-on favourites to get the job done at Wembley while goal markets suggest this will be a high scoring affair as over 2.5 goals is currently trading odds-on.
