Undefeated Teams Put Their Record on the Line
LEAGUE: English Premier League
GAME: Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City
LOCATION: White Hart Lane
DATE: Sunday 02/10
TIME: 15:15
Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City have met 151 times in their history, with Tottenham winning 59 times, Manchester City winning 57 times and 34 draws.
Tottenham continued their solid start to the season under Mauricio Pochettino, with a 2-1 win at Middlesbrough last weekend in the Premier League. Spurs are now unbeaten in 6 Premier League games this season, winning 4 and drawing 2, with dropped points coming at home to Liverpool and away to Everton. However, other than the comprehensive victory at Stoke, Spurs are yet to set the Premier League alight with their performances, despite sitting second in the table.
The Manchester City roadshow rolls on, having won at Swansea, 3-1 last weekend. Pep Guardiola’s team arrive at White Hart Lane with a 100% record to defend and having defeated Manchester United, at Old Trafford, 2-1 earlier this season, they will have no worries about taking on Spurs. A win in this match for Manchester City, will see them take firm control at the top of the Premier League table, something which will not be lost on Guardiola and his players.

- Winner
- First Goalscorer
- Winning Margin
Can’t Look Beyond Manchester City
The way they have started the season under Pep Guardiola, there cannot be any game in the Premier League right now, where they will not be favourites to take maximum points. They struggled against Spurs in the league last season but Guardiola will be well aware of that and Spurs have not been brilliant at home in their recent games, winning 2, drawing 2 and losing 1.
Game Tip: Manchester City to Win is 2.15 at Ladbrokes
Aguero on Fire
Sergio Aguero returned to the Manchester City starting XI in the Premier League last week, following a suspension and it was like he had never been away. The Argentine opened the scoring at Swansea and stepped up to convert a penalty later in the match, to help secure the points for his team. With 5 goals to his name already this season, expect to see Aguero on the score sheet in this game.
Game Tip: Sergio Aguero to Score First is 4.5 at Bet365
An Early Goal Makes the Difference
Manchester City have scored plenty of goals in the first half of games this season and Pep Guardiola seems keen for his team to stamp their authority on matches early in the Premier League. If Manchester City get an early goal, they could pick Spurs off a couple of times later in the game, widening the margin of victory.
