Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has warned his side of the "quality" Tottenham possess as he claims they will be prepared for a "tough" clash on Thursday night. It comes as both sides will be licking their wounds after their respective derby day defeats suffered at the weekend.
City were on the end of a 2-1 defeat to Manchester United, where a highly controversial Bruno Fernandes goal and a late Marcus Rashford finish sunk the Citizens. Spurs were on the end of their own sucker punch too, falling to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of rivals Arsenal at home.
"You know when you're playing against I think the best team in the world at the moment it will be very difficult," Antonio Conte said on the challenge ahead for his team. "Last season we were very good, showed great resilience. Also in this type of game, you need also to be a bit lucky to get a good result."
