Manchester City vs Tottenham – Betting Analysis
Although Manchester City won the Premier League last season, they fell to Tottenham in both of their head-to-head matches.
In their last six meetings with the Citizens, Spurs have prevailed four times. In these six games, only one goal was scored by each club.

Manchester City just cannot afford to make another error. Since they have been able to beat Tottenham in the past, should we think of them as the clear favourites here? Tottenham are the clear favourites here, given how easy it has been to beat them in previous games.
We expect a serious response from Pep Guardiola’s team, which should have a lot of chances to take advantage of Tottenham’s weak defence tonight.
You can wager on Erling Haaland to score two or more goals here at tempting 3.40 odds, while you can back Manchester City to win both halves at tempting 3.00 odds.
We have a hunch that Tottenham Hotspur will be able to get through this Manchester City team’s defence, but it probably won’t be enough to prevent a defeat.
