Sunday’s Premier League match at White Hart Lane sees the division’s only two unbeaten sides lock horns as Tottenham Hotspur take on leaders Manchester City.

The North London outfit made it four wins in a row with victory over CSKA Moscow in the Champions League on Tuesday while their 2-1 win at Middlesbrough last time out in the league kept them in touch with the table toppers.

Eric Dier, Mousa Dembele and Danny Rose are all closing in on returns from hamstring problems and will be assessed ahead of kick off while Moussa Sissoko could also feature after recovering from a head injury though Harry Kane remains out.

Heung Min-Son, who has three in his last two outings is 8.5 (15/2) to open the scoring with Coral with Christian Eriksen an 11.0 (10/1) chance with a variety of firms.

The home win is widely available at 3.10 (21/10) with the visitors priced at 2.45 (29/20). Bet Victor have the draw at 3.60 (13/5).

Pep Guardiola’s 100% record in all competitions was halted by Scottish champions Celtic on Wednesday evening with Brendan Rodgers side securing a 3-3 draw at the Etihad Stadium.

Their win over Swansea City last weekend moved them on to eighteen points and they will further extend their advantage at the summit with another triumph here.

John Stones could be recalled though Kevin De Bruyne, Vincent Komany and Fabian Delph remain sidelined while Nolito serves the final game of his suspension.

Sergio Aguero is favourite to get the first goal of the game following his brace at the Liberty Stadium with a number of firms offering odds of 5.0 (4/1) while Kelechi Iheanacho is a 7.0 (6/1) with Paddy Power.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side won both meetings between the sides last season, following their 4-1 home win last September with a 2-1 victory in Manchester on Valentines Day.

In fact nine of the last ten encounters have seen at least three goals so you may be tempted to bet on that outcome this time around at 2.15 (23/20) with several bookmakers.
