Tottenham Hotspur welcome Premier League champions Manchester City to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.
Spurs are currently sixth in the league, six points adrift of fourth-placed Chelsea, but have won just once in their last five matches.
City are still in the title race technically but could be 19 points behind league leaders, Liverpool, if Jurgen Klopp’s side manage to beat West Ham United on Wednesday night.
Pep Guardiola’s side have won 13 points from their last six games, but these two sides drew 2-2 when they met at the Etihad Stadium in August.
Jose Mourinho is still without Harry Kane and Moussa Sissoko, who have both suffered long-term injuries and are facing a race against time to return before the end of this season.
Ben Davies is closing in on his return though following an ankle injury and could return in time for Sunday’s match.
City are still without Leroy Sane who could return later this month following a knee injury that has kept him out for all of this season.
Riyad Mahrez, Aymeric Laporte, Benjamin Mendy, Kyle Walker and Joao Cancelo are all being assessed ahead of the match, but are hoped to be fit.
While City have not been at their brilliant best this season they remain the most devastating attack in the Premier League are should be more solid defensively with the return of Laporte.
Their form has been much more consistent than Spurs’ in recent weeks and they still have plenty to play for this season.
However, Spurs do have a good record against City in recent years and Mourinho will no doubt pull out all the stops to get one over his old rivals Guardiola.
Christian Eriksen has now left the club and Gedson Fernandes has been brought in to boost their midfield.
On balance, Spurs should prove tough opponents, but City will just have too much and win 2-1.
