Premier League champions Manchester City will visit Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Tuesday night for their penultimate match of the season as they look to go into the final match day on top of the league standings.
Premier League | Tottenham vs Man City | 14 May | 21:00
Arsenal ensured that this season’s title race goes down to the wire when they beat old foes Manchester United 1-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon. Now, City have the opportunity to leapfrog the Gunners going into the final match as the sides are separated by 2 points, and City’s catch-up match against Arsenal’s North London neighbors Spurs will be played out at 9 pm tomorrow evening.
The Citizens have been in typically emphatic form during the run-in, having won their last 7 Premier League matches. They last dropped points in a draw against Arsenal in March and will be confident to end the season with their current winning streak intact. Having scored more than 90 goals in the league this season, their attack is definitely favored to get the better of a Spurs defense that cannot seem to stop conceding goals lately.
Spurs, on the other hand, look to consolidate their 5th spot on the table as it has suddenly come under danger with Postecoglou’s side crashing out of the top 4 race and dropping dangerously close to Chelsea and Newcastle, who are in 6th and 7th positions. Spurs are currently 6 points ahead of them with 2 matches to go.
They will be relieved to have snapped their hellish 4-game losing streak this past weekend with a hard-fought victory over Burnley, who have since been relegated, as they need all the motivation they can get going up against a City side who have immense experience at performing in such high-pressure situations.
Prediction: Straight win for City @ 1.41 and at least 2.5 total goals scored, available @ 1.29
