Tottenham team news

Manchester City vs Tottenham score prediction
Man City spluttered in their draw with Liverpool last week but will hope their victory in Europe has done enough to blow away any remaining cobwebs after the November international break.
Tottenham are at their most vulnerable since Postecoglou's arrival, with injuries placing a significant spotlight on their lack of squad depth. They were guilty of wasting a lot of chances in the Villa defeat and such profligacy won't be mirrored by City's in-form stars.
Spurs have upset the odds against the treble winners on a number of occasions in recent years but their gung-ho approach will suit the hosts, who should have too much attacking quality to drop points for the third successive league game.
Prediction: Manchester City 3-1 Tottenham
