Manchester City Form/Stats

  • Pep Guardiola’s side have kept a clean sheet in their last two matches.
  • The Citizens have scored 10 goals in their last three outings.

Tottenham Hotspur Form/Stats

  • Spurs have just one win in their last four fixtures.
  • Both Richarlison and Brennan Johnson have scored two goals each across Tottenham’s last four games.

Player to Watch

Tijjani Reijnders made an impressive start to his Man City career last weekend, providing a goal and assist in the win over Wolves.

In addition to his tangible contributions, the Dutch midfielder made two key passes in a superb debut.

The spaces he plays in for this City team – essentially operating as a like-for-like Kevin De Bruyne replacement – mean we should expect some big numbers from him this season.

Man City vs Tottenham Head-to-Head Record

City and Tottenham both share two wins each across their last four meetings.

Both teams to score has landed only once in the side’s previous five head-to-heads.

The home side has been the winner only once in the last six matches between these two.
