The Citizen (Gauteng)

Jonty’s picks

-

It is amazing to think it, but Manchester City, having a fantastic season under Pep Guardiola, will lose their fourth game on the spin if they go down to Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley Stadium this evening.

Defeat to Liverpool in two legs of a Champions League quarterfin­al have sandwiched an incredible loss to Manchester United in the English Premier League, City letting slip a 2-0 lead when a victory would have wrapped up the title.

As it is, City still only need to win two of their last eight league games to be crowned champions, but they are likely to find the going tough at Wembley, with Tottenham in splendid form and closing in on sealing a top four finish.

With Christan Eriksen playing some superb stuff, and Harry Kane back from injury, I think Tottenham will beat City this evening and pile more pressure on Guardiola.
