Manchester City will be eager to get back to winning ways after losing their derby at the weekend, as they welcome Tottenham Hotspur to the Etihad Stadium for an intriguing Premier League clash.

Even though Man City will be the favourites in this match, the form is not on their side, which could give Tottenham a chance to get the win.
