Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur
The Premier League is back! And what a tough fixture for us today.
After two blowout losses to City last season, Mauricio Pochettino will try to keep his side focused on the match at hand, without thinking about their previous results at the Etihad. “The reality is I don’t remember the results. This is another season, another philosophy, another game and we need to arrive on Saturday with the idea to believe in our philosophy and style and try to get the points.”, said the gaffer.
Hugo Lloris (thigh) and Nacer Chadli (hip), our in-form players, did not feature for their countries this week but are likely fit enough to start today. Emmanuel Adebayor and Nabil Bentaleb only returned from International duty on Friday and may be rested, while Kyle Naughton (ankle) and Kyle Walker (pelvis) remain sidelined. So this is a great time for Soldado to feature as the man upfront with an unchanged midfield of Chadli, Eriksen, Lamela and Capoue.
I don’t expect a win against a strong side playing at home so anything more than a draw is a bonus.
COYS!
