Tottenham vs Manchester City preview

Team news

Tottenham Hotspur could once again be without Richarlison and Rodrigo Betancur, but Cristian Romero is in line to make his first start of the season after playing 30 minutes against Leicester on Saturday.

Manchester City will be without the suspended Ruben Dias and Aymeric Laporte, while Kevin De Bruyne is a doubt after suffering a knock in the win over Aston Villa.

Form

Tottenham have won their last two Premier League games, following a disappointing start to the season which saw them lose three of their opening six matches.

Manchester City have won their last three Premier League games, and are currently top of the table, one point ahead of Arsenal.

Head-to-head

Tottenham have won three of the last five meetings between the two sides, including a 2-0 victory at the Etihad Stadium in February.

Prediction

This is a tough game to call, but we think Manchester City will just edge it. They are in better form than Tottenham, and have more quality in their squad. However, Tottenham have a good record against Manchester City, and will be buoyed by their recent victories.

Preview:

With just seven games of the season, no team in the Premier League has played more than a single game, with Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea, Manchester United, and Newcastle United all on nine points, while Brighton sits on seven points as well. However, Manchester City is far behind on just six points after drawing both of their games this season, and they sit 19th on the table.

With the transfer window officially closed, teams have less than three weeks to prepare for the next round of games, and we'll have a ton of exciting matches to review, including Fulham vs. Newcastle United, Manchester United vs. Manchester City, and Tottenham vs. Leicester City.
