Scheduled to kick off at 7:30 pm GMT on Wednesday 26th February 2025, this clash between Tottenham and Manchester City is packed with promise, however, it’s not for the same reason as previous years. Instead of being a game that could be pivotal in deciding the top places in the Premier League, as it often is, this match will be merely about steadying the ship.

Both teams have had an unimpressive season, to say the least, with the defending champions Manchester City sitting an incredible 20 points behind league leaders Liverpool, at the time of writing. While they currently sit in 4th, there are just five points between City and 10th place, so a result against Tottenham could be key to ensuring that the Cityzens play Champions League football next season. Of course, there’s also coming into this game after being embarrassed by Liverpool at the weekend, which could further fuel the fire beneath the players.

On the other hand, Tottenham will be looking to close down the space between them and the top half of the Premier League, with the gap currently sitting at 6 points. They smashed a struggling Ipswich side last Saturday (4 – 1), which could help to bring some confidence back to the squad. However, City will be an entirely different beast.

On this page, we share a preview of the upcoming game between Tottenham and Manchester City, including the head-to-head record and predicted lineups for both teams.

Tottenham vs Manchester City Head-to-Head

Tottenham have faced off against Manchester City plenty of times in recent history, with a total of four matches in 2024 alone. The team from London have the edge in the past 10 encounters, winning 5 of them, with 1 draw and Manchester City being victorious in the other 4. Here’s a full look at the last meetings between the two sides:

Tottenham vs Manchester City Predicted Line Ups

For Tottenham, Ange Postecoglou will be hesitant to change anything after their impressive 4 – 1 thumping over Ipswich. It was one of the most impressive performances from the Spurs in quite a while, so we wouldn’t be surprised to see things remain identical from the start.

• Tottenham Predicted Line Up: Vicaro, Udogie, Danso, Gray, Spence, Bentancur, Bergvall, Kulusevski, Son, Johnson, Tel

When it comes to Manchester City, the lineup could vary quite significantly based on the decision surrounding Erling Haaland, who was ruled out of the clash with Liverpool due to a knee injury.

• Man City Predicted Line Up: Ederson, Gvardiol, Ake, Khusanov, Lewis, Gundogan, Gonzalez, Foden, de Bruyne, Savio, Marmoush

Tottenham vs Manchester City: Our Betting Tips

• Betting Tip 1: Manchester City To Win

The away side will be looking to solidify themselves in the top four of the Premier League as they make the trip to London, which would be the bare minimum that City fans would have expected at the start of the season. Despite their superstar Erling Haaland being touch and go for the encounter after being left out in the match against Liverpool at the weekend, Marmoush has proved that he can be clinical if he’s given enough support.

He will likely be playing with Kevin de Bruyne and Phil Foden behind him, so delivery shouldn’t be an issue in this encounter. If Foden can have his way with Spence on the left, it could be a long night for the Tottenham defence, which we think will eventually crumble under the pressure of the better team, at least on paper. We’re backing Manchester City to get the win here, in an attempt to regain confidence and make it up to their fans after a disappointing weekend.

• Betting Tip 2: Over 2.5 Goals

While Tottenham and Man City have both had disappointing seasons, they haven’t been shy in front of goals, finding the back of the net 53 and 52 times, respectively. Over 2.5 goals has been a successful bet in 9 out of the last 10 encounters involving Manchester City, and 8 of the last 10 matches that Tottenham have played.

It’s possible that both teams will be a bit nervy in this game, too, which could lead to errors at the back that either Tel, Son, Foden, or Marmoush can take full advantage of. It’s got all the makings of a scrappy affair, so we’re going with over 2.5 goals for our second Premier League betting tip.
