Manchester City will be buoyed by Arsenal’s defeat to Everton on Saturday with a win over Tottenham taking them within two points of the Gunners.
Last month’s meeting between the pair saw City come back from 2-0 down at half-time to win 4-2. Pep Guardiola, though, was less than impressed with his team and sent a stark warning to improve their mentality as they try to catch up with Arsenal.
This time, Spurs could be without Antonio Conte who had an emergency operation to remove his gallbladder this week. Nevertheless, Guardiola will be expecting a tough test from Tottenham, who are trying to keep themselves within touching distance of the top four.
