Pep Guardiola has explained why he's drafted both Rico Lewis and Julian Alvarez into his side to face Tottenham.
Manchester City are looking to arrest their poor run of form and avoid losing three matches on the bounce when they face their bogey side. Guardiola has made sweeping changes to his starting XI with big names Kevin De Bruyne, Phil Foden, Kyle Walker and Joao Cancelo all being left on the bench.
World Cup winner Alvarez has come into the team in order to provide more support for Erling Haaland who has now gone two-and-a-half games without scoring, and the Blues boss told Sky Sports: "We need a bit more presence in the final third."
