Tottenham vs Manchester City Prediction & Match Preview
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to Host FA Cup Fourth-Round Clash
The most anticipated FA Cup fourth-round clash is set to take place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Friday evening as Tottenham Hotspur welcomes Manchester City.
City on Fire
The Citizens arrive in north London on the back of an impressive run of form, having won eight and drawn one of their last nine games in all competitions. They’ve been particularly prolific in attack, scoring three or more goals in five of their last six wins.
Haaland Doubt, De Bruyne Back
Erling Haaland’s full integration into the team might come too soon for this match, but Kevin De Bruyne is expected to be back in action after his influential cameo in the 3-2 win at Newcastle. De Bruyne’s goal and assist were crucial in keeping City within touching distance of Premier League leaders Liverpool.
Spurs on the Rise
Tottenham have also shown signs of improvement in recent weeks, picking up two wins and a draw in their last three games. They overcame Burnley 1-0 in the FA Cup third round before drawing 2-2 with Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Recent Meetings
These two sides shared a thrilling 3-3 draw in the Premier League at the Etihad Stadium in December. Tottenham have three wins, one draw, and one defeat in their last five encounters with City.
Over 2.5 Goals Likely
Over 2.5 goals have been scored in all but one of the last four head-to-head meetings between these teams, and with both sides in good attacking form, we can expect another high-scoring encounter on Friday.
Tottenham vs Manchester City Prediction
Manchester City are the favorites to win, given their recent form and superior squad depth. However, Tottenham are no pushovers, and their attacking style of play bodes well for an entertaining contest.
