Manchester City vs Tottenham Betting Tips 19/02/2022

Akshay Nayak, Senior Author

Manchester City will play host to Tottenham Hotspurs on Matchday 26 of the English Premier League as they hope to extend their lead at the top of the table. The match is scheduled for the 19th of February at 23:00 IST.

Manchester City are in glorious form presently, winning and scoring goals almost effortlessly. Spurs seem to be regressing, suffering back-to-back league defeats, characterized by poor performances, especially in defense. Spurs won this fixture when both teams met early in the season. This game promises to be interesting and has football fans already looking forward to it.

Teams Status

Take a look at the latest on the form and team news of Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspurs:

Manchester City Form and Team News

City have been a joy to watch in the league all season and deservedly sit atop the table after 25 matches. The Manchester club is on a 15–match unbeaten run in the league, notching 14 wins and 1 draw.

Their form has seen them establish a nine-point lead at the top of the table ahead of second-placed Liverpool. Manchester City has won 20 games all season, with 3 draws and 2 losses, scoring 61 goals and conceding 14. England winger Raheem Sterling is top of the log on their goalscorers’ list with 10 goals and 1 assist.

In Man City’s team news, Gabriel Jesus, Palmer Cole, Jack Grealish, and Steffen Zackary are injured, while Kyle Walker is out on suspension. Benjamin Mendy has been unavailable all season owing to his trial for sexual assault and rape.

Tottenham Hotspurs Form and Team News

Spurs have been bland all season, and while their fortunes have improved under Conte, they are still a long way off the Premier League elite. With 2 wins and 3 losses in their last 5 league games, they have fallen behind in the race to Europe.

They are now 8th on the league table, with 36 points, although they have 3 games in hand. They have won 11, drawn 3, and lost 8 games so far, scoring 28 goals and conceding another 29 in 22 matches. Heung Min Son remains their top scorer with 9 goals and 3 assists in the league.

For their team news, Spurs will be unable to call on the services of Eric Dier, Japhet Tanganga, and Oliver Skipp, who have picked up knocks and are out injured.

Tipster’s Angle

Manchester City’s form makes them unplayable in the league presently. They have been relentless in recent matches, and when compared to Spurs’ output in recent weeks, the huge gulf between both sides is evident. Although Tottenham won the reverse fixture early in the season, the current form suggests that a repeat is unlikely to happen. Here are our tips for the game:

Tip: Manchester City To Win @ 1.27

City look set to continue their charge towards the Premier League title and are by far superior to this Tottenham side in every position on the field. They have clicked since their struggles early in the season and only look set to improve as key players like Sterling stay in form. City to win is available on the Parimatch sportsbook at 1.27 odds.

Tip: Total Goals Over 1.5 @ 1.16

City have been racking up the numbers in recent times, yet against opposition teams in the famed ‘Top Six,’ they have seemed content to score two goals or less. Also, from the head-to-head record, the last two matches between these two sides ended in 1–0 wins. We, however, expect more goals in this game, and Total Goals Over 1.5 is available on the Sportsbet.io sportsbook at 1.16.

Conclusion

Manchester City vs. Tottenham Hotspurs has always been a nerve-wracking encounter since both teams broke their way into the Premier League’s Top Six. Spurs will be on the back foot for most of this game and are highly unlikely to withstand the pressure from City. Spurs will hope to hit City on the break, and we expect to see a game with attacking opportunities at both ends.
