Man City vs Tottenham Predictions

Manchester City started the season in good form last weekend with Haaland looking a menace in front of goal. I expect plenty of goals in this encounter.

Head to Head
Manchester City Form
Tottenham Hotspurs Form

Man City have seen over 3.5 goals in 4 of their last 5 matches.
Man City’s Erling Haaland has scored 6 goals in his last 5 appearances.
Man City have seen over 2.5 goals in 2 of their last 3 matches against Tottenham.
Tottenham have seen over 2.5 goals in 3 consecutive games.

Head to Head

These two have met 174 times with City winning 69 and Spurs 68. There has been 34 draws.

Manchester City Form

Pep Guardiola’s Man City are undefeated in eight consecutive matches, winning seven and scoring 28 goals.

City were eliminated from the Club World Cup after a 3-3 draw and eventual defeat on penalties against Al Hilal. The Citizens played one pre-season friendly and comfortably beat Palermo 3-0, where Haaland scored the opener.

Guardiola’s team started the 2025/26 Premier League season by thrashing Wolves 4-0 away on Saturday. Haaland scored twice and Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Cherki also struck as City dominated with 2.46 XG.

Tottenham Hotspurs Form

Tottenham ended pre-season in unconvincing form after a 1-1 draw with Newcastle and a 4-0 defeat at Bayern Munich.

Spurs then gave up a 2-0 lead and drew 2-2 against PSG in the UEFA Super Cup final. Thomas Frank’s side eventually fell to a 4-3 defeat on penalties.

The North London outfit hit back and comfortably beat Burnley 3-0 at home in the Premier League. Tottenham had 2.32 XG and Richarlison scored twice before Brennan Johnson added a late third.

Verdict

Man City v Tottenham

Man City and Tottenham have early scoring form this season and over 2.5 goals is likely on Saturday. Erling Haaland has rediscovered his best form recently and he can strike at the Etihad.
