Tottenham vs Manchester City Prediction Prediction Match Details
On Tuesday night, Tottenham will host Manchester City in the Premier League round of 34 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. City is eyeing a return to the top of the Premier League standings, while Spurs are vying for a top-four finish.
Tottenham Preview & Form
Tottenham Hotspur heads into their final 2023–24 Midweek Premier League match with a slim chance of securing a top-four finish as they face title contender City. In their last match at home against Burnley, Spurs put an end to their four-match losing streak with a hard-fought 2-1 victory. Currently in fifth place with 63 points from 36 games, they trail five points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa.
Ange Postecoglou will aim to boost his team’s morale as they strive to disrupt City’s title chase, especially as Spurs have won their last four league encounters with City. The team has achieved success at home this season, winning 13 out of 18 games. They have won four of their last five league home matches, with their only loss being against Arsenal, with a score of 3-2.
It’s important to note that Tottenham has displayed strong attacking abilities at home throughout the season, with both teams scoring in 16 of their 18 home games. Only Fulham and Manchester United have failed to score in away games against Spurs.
Manchester City Preview & Form
Defending champions Manchester City are determined to win their fourth successive Premier League title this season. The team has been performing exceptionally well, having won their last seven consecutive matches, including a 4-0 win over Fulham, with Gvardiol scoring a brace. With 85 points, City currently sits second in the league standings, just one point behind Arsenal. Regardless of other results, they will need to win their remaining two games to make it to the top of the Premier League standings.
Pep Guardiola’s side has been in good form all season, having lost only three of their 18 away matches played so far. City is currently on a four-match winning streak on the road in the league and will look to build on this impressive run to end their four consecutive losing away league encounters with Spurs. However, City managed to defeat Tottenham at their home stadium earlier in the season in the FA Cup tie in January with a 1-0 victory.
