This week, spare a thought for Antonio Conte, who hands the reigns over to Cristian Stellini at Tottenham after having his gallbladder surgically removed after complaining of "serious abdominal pain" during last weekend's FA Cup victory over Preston.
Conte, who might sit in the director's box for this game if he is allowed to travel, saw Son Heung-min score a hat trick and Arnaut Danjuma score his first goal in a comfortable Deepdale victory before traveling to his native Italy to undergo surgery.
Harry Kane's record-tying 266th goal for Tottenham helped the club win the cup after a hard-fought Premier League victory over London rival Fulham. However, the Lilywhites are still playing catch-up in the Champions League race, currently sitting fifth and three points behind Newcastle United and Manchester United, both of whom have a game in hand.

Tottenham form

Tottenham is attempting to win three straight games for the first time since October, although the Lilywhites have recently struggled at home and suffered a loss right after back-to-back victories in November and January.
In fact, Man City has a recent record when it comes to scoring multiple goals against their North London rivals, as four of Spurs' last five Premier League meetings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium have ended in defeat, with at least two goals conceded in each of those games.

Manchester City form

In the first half of their FA Cup fourth-round heavyweight match against Arsenal, Manchester City finally tested their mettle against the only team in the country to have outperformed them in the 2022–23 season, although Mikel Arteta would ultimately have another unhappy return to the Etihad.

Man City eliminated Arsenal in the fourth round thanks to a brilliant goal from Nathan Ake, but the defending Premier League champions still have a long way to go to catch Arteta's unstoppable runs.
Erling Braut Haaland's fourth hat-trick of the season, which ended a brief goal drought, destroyed Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-0 two weekends ago. However, Guardiola's team is still five points behind Arsenal, who have a game in hand, due to the Gunners' late-game victory over Manchester United.

Manchester City form

Man City may have had three victories at home, but despite that, the champions have dropped their last two away games against Manchester United and Southampton. Guardiola has also shockingly lost all four of his prior trips to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium; he has a worse record at no other stadium.

Tottenham will even have the support of the red side of North London for a couple of hours at most in their attempt to right the wrongs of the Etihad encounter. A furious Guardiola tore into his players after their 4-2 win over Spurs in January, where Conte's side got to halftime with a 2-0 advantage before the Riyad Mahrez-inspired fightback.

Tottenham vs Manchester City Best Tips from Betimate

Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Manchester City

Given how regularly the Lilywhites concede goals at home and how little glory the champions have enjoyed on opposing fields, it would not be surprising to see a flurry of goals between Tottenham and Manchester City here.
Guardiola's usually free-flowing team has something off this season, but they defended well against Arsenal, and it's always hard to tell which Tottenham team will show up, so we still anticipate the champs to win by a slim margin.
