Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Match outcome: Man City to win — 1.33
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Combo: Man City to win + Tottenham to score — 2.7
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Both teams to score: YES — 1.76
The Citizens are eager to bounce back to winning ways after they succumbed to a 2-1 defeat to Manchester United last weekend. Man City weren’t at their best against United but are anxious to correct things up against Tottenham, who lost 2-0 at home to Arsenal on Sunday.
Manchester City have only managed two clean sheets in their last six matches across all competitions so there’s a chance that Tottenham could get a consolation goal at the Etihad.
Because City have only kept two clean sheets in their last six games, I think Tottenham could score at least one goal before the last whistle.
conceded against Southampton and Everton, so there’s a chance they could concede too against Spurs.
Man City have only managed two wins in their last five Premier League matches, including last weekend’s 2-1 defeat against Manchester United.
City currently occupy the 2nd position with 39 points after 18 matches and are now seven points behind league leaders, Arsenal after the Gunners beat Spurs 2-0 away from home.
Spurs have been dreadful in the league in recent games, having won just two of their last five league games including last weekend’s 2-0 defeat at home to Arsenal.
Tottenham are currently occupying the 5th position with 33 points after 19 matches.
Both teams are struggling to maintain their consistency this month but City have the better squad to get all three points on Thursday night.
I’d personally back Manchester City to smash Tottenham real hard at the Etihad Stadium and expect Erling Haaland to score at least two goals before the final whistle.
Manchester City are a good goalscoring side, hence it’s safe to back this game to produce at least two goals before the last whistle.
Ruben Dias and John Stones are ruled out of the game.
