Prediction

  • Manchester City secured a record breaking 15th successive Premier League win in midweek and have dropped just two points all season. They have, however, kept only two clean sheets in their last eight Premier League matches and still struggle at the back.
  • Tottenham moved back into the top half of the table with a 2-0 win over Brighton and look to have shaken themselves out of a rut to land back-to-back Premier League victories for the first time since October. Spurs are unbeaten in their last two visits to the Etihad Stadium and may fancy their chances against an injury hitdefence.
  • There should be goals in this one, but City have the attacking quality to land a 16th straight top-flight win.
