Man City vs Tottenham Predictions

Man City had little problem beating Tottenham 3-0 in February. I am expecting City to beat Spurs again and lift the League Cup trophy.

Man City have won 29 of their last 32 matches (all competitions).
Man City have won 6 of their last 10 matches against Tottenham (all competitions).
Tottenham have lost 3 of their last 7 matches (all competitions).

Head to Head

Manchester City have a 64-63 advantage against Tottenham with 36 draws in 163 matches.

Man City beat Tottenham 3-0 in February with Rodrigo opening the scoring and Ilkay Gündogan bagging a brace.

Manchester City Form

Manchester City have won 29 of their last 32 matches in all competitions. They have shown some fragility in recent weeks.

Pep Guardiola’s side won six straight games before a shock 2-1 home defeat to Leeds despite having 71% possession and 29-2 shots.

Man City beat Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in both legs in the Champions League quarter-finals. They then took on Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-finals, losing 1-0 at Wembley.

Man City’s last match was a 2-1 win at Aston Villa in the Premier League. They fell behind in the 1st minute, hit back with goals to Phil Foden and Rodrigo and held on after John Stones was sent off.

Manchester City Injuries & Team News

Attacking midfielder Kevin De Bruyne and striker Sergio Agüero are injured.

Tottenham Form

Tottenham have been in poor form. Spurs drew at Newcastle and Everton either side of a 3-1 home defeat against Manchester United, the club ruthlessly sacking Jose Mourinho.

Ryan Mason was given the job to the end of the season. His first match in charge was a 2-1 home win against Southampton on Wednesday.

Tottenham were 1-0 down at half time, hitting back with Gareth Bale equalising and Son Heung-Min scoring a penalty in the 90th minute.

Tottenham Injuries and Team News

Tottenham left back Ben Davies is inured.

Right back Matt Doherty and star striker Harry Kane are doubtful.

Verdict

Man City v Tottenham

Tottenham struggled under a high press from Southampton but Saints couldn’t sustain it.

Man City have the best pressing in the game which should see them create plenty of chances against Spurs, dominate possession and win the League Cup.
