Man City predicted lineup vs Tottenham for this week
Manchester City goes head to head against Tottenham at the Ethiad Stadium on 19 January, Thursday. Alley sport brings you the Man City predicted lineup vs Tottenham.
Man City have 2 tough fixtures coming up against Manchester United followed by Tottenham in a week and with Arsenal sitting firm on the first place with a lead of 5 points , Pep Guardiola’s side would look to get all the 6 points in the bag.
After cruising to a 4-0 victory over Chelsea in the FA Cup third round last weekend, many would have predicted another comfortable win for Man City against Premier League basement club Southampton in the EFL Cup quarter-finals on Wednesday night.
However, the Citizens were deservedly beaten 2-0 by the Saints and failed to register a single shot on target throughout the 90 minutes for the first time in 275 matches since a 3-0 Champions League loss to Liverpool in April 2018.
Pep Guardiola also endured the first-ever domestic cup quarter-final exit of his managerial career, ending a 15-game winning streak at this stage. City are a formidable side as usual this season, but they are coming off a shock 2-0 Carabao Cup loss to Premier League cellar dwellars Southampton and now face a match agaist their local rivals on short rest.
