Both Tottenham and Manchester City will be hoping to find respite from the cut and thrust of the Premier League, as they meet in the Carabao Cup. Spurs continue to search for a trophy, having last tasted silverware in this competition back in 2008. City meanwhile were prolific for a long time in this competition under Pep Guardiola but the Catalan great has announced that the competition is secondary in his thinking this term, something that will inspire Tottenham in front of their home fans.

Tottenham vs Manchester City Analysis
This should be a fantastic contest, with the prospect of reaching Wembley continuing to loom for both sides.
Tottenham
Ange Postecoglou is a manager under the pump at Tottenham, following a run of huge inconsistency and Spurs need a catalyst within their campaign. Recent Premier League results have been tough to fathom and whilst they have plenty of talent at their disposal, Spurs always seem to find a way to encounter strife. This will be a good chance to take on one of the real contenders this term though and Spurs should be bang up for this.
Team news: Richarlison, Son Heung-min and Wilson Odobert look to be struggling here for Spurs.
Tottenham Predicted Lineup:
Forster, Davies, Spence, Van der Ven, Dragusin, Sarr, Bissouma, Kulusevski, Werner, Johnson & Bentancur.
Manchester City
It has been a strong enough start to the campaign for Manchester City, who remain unbeaten but who continue to have plenty of problems within their ranks injury wise. City have so much talent at their disposal, that they will see this as a chance to give everyone in their squad some minutes, but the reality is that any game against Spurs is difficult, especially on the road and City could be a touch exposed here.
Team news: Rodri, Kevin de Bruyne and Nathan Ake will miss out for City.
Manchester City Predicted Lineup:
Ortega, Lewis, Akanji, Walker, Stones, Nunes, Gundogan, McAtee, Savio, Foden & Doku.
Tottenham vs Manchester City Prediction
This should be a very good game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, as two of the favourites to go all the way in the Carabao Cup this season clash. Both sides will be rotating their starting XI, which should enable some players on the fringes to pick up more minutes and should make this an enthralling encounter. Calling it in 90 minutes is tough and it could well go to penalties.
Prediction: The match to finish as a draw – 3/1 (+300) – Rhino Bet.
Tottenham vs Manchester City – The Ultimate Bet
Tottenham to progress to the last 8 – 6/4 (+150) – Fitzdares
Pep Guardiola has been very vocal about the fact that Manchester City will be rotating their squad here and consequently, Spurs could just have the edge in this Carabao Cup tie, especially in front of their home fans.
