Tottenham vs Manchester City Match Preview

Tottenham is ranked at the second spot and is having a great run for the moment as they are unbeaten in the last five matches coming after four wins and just a draw. With 19 goals scored in eight games, they have the second-best attack averaging at least two goals per game. Coach Mourinho finally got the team to play as he wants and he must be happy he will have Son available here.

In attack, alongside him, we should see Kane, Lo Celso, and Bale. The duo Kane-Son already scored 15 goals together while providing ten assists. Tottenham has managed to find the back of the net at least once in each of their last five duels.

Manchester City, on the other hand, is ranked in 10th place with just 12 points. They are also unbeaten over the last five matches, but they managed to get only two wins and three draws. Currently, they are sitting five points behind Liverpool and Tottenham, knowing that they can not tolerate a loss in a direct encounter like this. Being also one game short gives them a chance to shorten the distance further in case of a positive result here.

With ten goals in seven games, Manchester City is far from what we are used to seeing, but sooner or later they will start firing on full cylinders. The attack should be composed by Gabriel Jesus, Torres who comes after a great performance with Spain and Sterling, if he will be considered fit. If not, Phoden will be in the starting eleven, but still Sterling should play in the second half.

In conclusion, I think this match can have over 2.5 goals. Tottenham has been just too good this season and playing at home they have a chance to grab the first spot even though for a day. Kane and Son are combining perfectly and I expect one of them to be on the score sheet again. Manchester City got plenty of quality despite not getting the best results lately.
