Manchester City vs Tottenham Prediction

Manchester City Form

In their last three matches, Manchester City won 2-5 against Juventus, before recording a draw in a 2-2 match against Al Hilal. They were back on top last time out, defeating Wolverhampton 0-4. Manchester City showed little mercy in their past six matches at the Etihad Stadium, of which they won five and drew once. Going undefeated, they hit the target 15 times, while letting in six themselves.

Tottenham Form

In their past three matches, Tottenham lost 1-4 against Brighton, drew 2-2 with Paris Saint-Germain and won 3-0 against Burnley. Tottenham didn't manage a single away win in their last six Premier League matches, but managed one draws, while suffering five defeats. They conceded 15 and scored four goals themselves.

Manchester City should be too strong against Tottenham to drop any points, and combining this with over 2.5 goals, ups the price on the expected home win at Etihad Stadium.
