The Premier League returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Tottenham Hotspur take on Pep Guardiola's impressive Manchester City side in an important clash at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Preview
Tottenham Hotspur are currently in fifth place in the Premier League standings and have been fairly impressive so far this season. The North London outfit slumped to a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of Aston Villa last week and will need to work hard to bounce back in this match.
Manchester City, on the other hand, are in second place in the league table at the moment and have stepped up to the plate this season. The Cityzens edged RB Leipzig to an important 3-2 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
