The Big Match Previewed - Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur

Last week's big match saw Manchester United run out 4-0 winners against Chelsea. Today sees their city rivals Manchester City take on Tottenham Hotspur at 17.30 on Sky Sports.

Both sides got off to perfect starts with City beating West Ham 5-0 and Tottenham overcoming promoted Aston Villa 3-1.

Manchester City will be without Benjamin Mendy and Leroy Sane for the foreseeable future as both recover from serious injuries. Ryan Sessegnon and Dele Alli will definitely not feature for Tottenham.

Christian Eriksen, who wanted to leave Spurs in the summer, made a great impression from the bench against Villa and Pochettino has to start him if Tottenham want any chance of winning. New signing Giovani Lo Celso could make his first appearance in white.

City are the favourites for a reason and didn't play a full strength side against West Ham. Aguero and Bernardo Silva are in line to start and will help their side to a win.

It will be a close game but I predict City to win 2-0.
