MATCH FACTS

Head-to-head

Tottenham's 2-0 home victory in February ended a run of six Premier League games without a win in this fixture.

Manchester City have only lost more Premier League games against Chelsea than the 24 they have versus Tottenham.

In both of Manchester City's two fixtures at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Son Heung-min has scored, Hugo Lloris has saved a penalty and the visitors have failed to score.

Tottenham Hotspur

They have trailed for a total of just 58 minutes in the Premier League so far this season. The next best record is Manchester City's 88 minutes.

Spurs could extend their winning streak against other established top-six teams to three matches, which would equal their best run dating back to the 1999-2000 season.

Son Heung-min is level with Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Mohamed Salah and Jamie Vardy as the top flight's leading scorer prior to the weekend, with eight goals. The Premier League record for the most goals in a club's opening nine matches of a season is 10, set by Les Ferdinand for Newcastle in 1995-96.

Jose Mourinho has lost five league matches as a manager versus Manchester City, his joint most against a single opponent - along with Spurs.

Mourinho is aiming to win successive competitive fixtures against Pep Guardiola for the first time.

Manchester City

Manchester City have lost just one of their 12 matches in all competitions this season.

However, 12 points is their lowest tally after seven fixtures of a Premier League campaign since 2008-09 under Mark Hughes.

They've scored only 10 goals in their opening seven league fixtures, compared to an incredible 27 at the same stage of last season.

City have lost five of their past seven Premier League away matches against other established top-six sides, including each of the last three.

I note that certain media outlets are reporting that we’re a team in decline, fuck knows what they think of the Rags, et al.

[stevefromdonny]

their fans think that they are better than us, mind they also think they are better than Chelsea and Arsenal

[Beefymcfc]

[Beefymcfc]

Hoping we have some cutting edge as don’t want the same feeling I had last season where we pummelled the cunts only for them to do a Borinho and sucker punch us on the break.
