Fellow Steemers, this is a preview of the match between Manchester City(in-form table toppers of EPL) and Tottenham Hotspur(top four contender).
Manchester City v Tottenham Hotspur: match preview.
Manchester City have not beaten Tottenham Hotspur since May 2015, which means Pep Guardiola is yet to defeat Mauricio Pochetinno’s side since taking over. The smart money, though, says Saturday will be the day as City are 18 points better off and flying. If Spurs can worry the home side through pace, though, as Liverpool did in September before Sadio Mané’s sending off, they may have a chance of handing City a first league defeat. Jamie Jackson

On the Tottenham side you can count on Harry Kane to get on the scoresheet, provided he is fed with quality services from his midfielders(particularly Erikson and Dele Alli).
And if you are also rooting for a Manchester City win then you can aldo count on David Silva(Spaniard magician) to pull the strings in midfield for the likes of Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling, Sergio Kun Aguero etc. to bang in the goals for the run-away league leaders.
Will it be the Citizens from the blue half of Manchester that comes out on top or Spurs from North London that ends City's unbeaten run? Or will it end in a stalemate?
We will find out after 90 minutes. Enjoy the match.
