Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur: Preview
form
Manchester City have crushed the competition under Pep Guardiola, winning the Premier League title a whopping six times in the past eight years. The Cityzens set the standard for teams around the world with their incredible play.
City have made an excellent start to the 2024-25 Premier League season, successfully winning their first four Premier League matches. However, unlike the previous season, City failed to maintain momentum, with their performance plummeting. Since October 26, Manchester City has been in crisis, having lost four games in all competitions. This was the worst performance since Guardiola became manager.
In their previous match, City lost 2-1 to Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium. Despite the poor results, City sit in second place in the Premier League standings with 23 points. They are 5 points behind leaders Liverpool.
On the other hand, Tottenham Hotspur performed very poorly this season. In 11 games, the Lilywhites have won five, drawn and lost five. Spurs, who are 10th in the Premier League standings with 16 points, come into the game after suffering a disappointing 2-1 defeat at home to Ipswich Town.
