There is a massive match-up coming our way from the Premier League this Saturday, when league leaders Manchester City will play host to Tottenham. Manchester City are hacing a dominant season so far, having excelled in every competition they’ve participated so far. They are coming off a dominant performance on the road against Swansea, and they will be looking to make it three-in-a-row here. Tottenham are also coming off a strong performance, as they easily overcame Brighton by 0-2 at home.
Manchester City (16-0-1) are coming into this match after destroying Swansea by 4-0 on the road. They scored two goals in each half, as Manchester City have now won back-to-back matches. Their recent success against Manchester United last week has them easily sitting at the top of the Premier League, as they are already 11 points ahead of any other team. It will take a lot of results to go against them throughout the rest of the season for them to not win the title. They have been just as dominant at home too (7-0-1), where only Everton have held them to a 1-1 draw. However, Manchester City have only kept a single clean sheet in their last four home matches in all competitions.

On the other hand, Tottenham (9-4-4) had a rather easy match-up against Brighton on Wednesday, as they comfortably won by 0-2 at home. They took the lead at the 40th minute with Aurier, before Son doubled Tottenham’s lead at the 87th minute for the final 0-2. That was Tottenham’s third consecutive win in all competitions, having scored ten goals in that span, against just one conceded. They are now sitting at the 4th spot of the Premier League with 31 points, just as many as Liverpool and Burnley below them. Tottenham have been mediocre on the road so far (4-3-1), and they have actually struggled a bit lately. They have only won one of their last six road matches in all competitions, a 2-1 reverse against Dortmund in the Champions League. Moreover, they have failed to keep a single clean sheet in that span.
