Team News
Man City
Tottenham
- Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is without injured trio Kevin De Bruyne, Matheus Nunes and Mateo Kovacic.
- City should go with a three-man backline, with Kyle Walker, Manuel Akanji, Josko Gvardiol and Nathan Ake battling it out to flank Ruben Dias.
- Yves Bissouma returns for Tottenham, which is just as well as they have lost Rodrigo Bentancur to injury until the New Year.
- The Uruguayan joins a lengthy absentee list, which includes Micky van de Ven, James Maddison and Cristian Romero, though the latter serves the third of a three-match ban.
- Ange Postecoglou could make just one change to the XI that start against Aston Villa last week.
