Tottenham take on the visitors Manchester City in the round 22 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, February 5th at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (London).
Tottenham finished 4th in the last Premier League season. An excellent result and a significant achievement for Conte, who took over the club already in the course of the draw, and in the decline of Spurs. However, Antonio himself has publicly said more than once that the return to the Champions League was achieved almost by accident, with great luck. It is clear that now in London they hope to keep such positions (although the campaign in the cup is still ongoing, and in the Champions League the British, albeit not without incident, made it to the playoffs). Yes, it helps that Chelsea and Liverpool are in crisis and are unlikely to have time to return to the fight for places in the quartet. But, on the other hand, Manchester United and, especially, Arsenal, Newcastle are more consistent. As a result, so far the Spurs are in 5th place. In some ways, they themselves are guilty, because they lost to direct competitors - both City and the North London derby to the Gunners, and even with Bretnford and Aston Villa took only 1 point in 2 fights.

Manchester City have already established dominance in English football. Yes, there was a long-awaited Liverpool championship in the “coronavirus” 2020 year, but after that Guardiola returned the title and defended it. It seems that both he and his wards are even fed up with constant success in the Premier League. And now, despite the scoring exploits of a newcomer, Haaland, who has already scored 25 goals in new for himself, Arsenal are being released into an ever greater gap. The fans had hopes that after at least a long pause, their favorites would stop fooling around and start seriously chasing the Gunners. But no, they managed to lose points with a modest Everton and lose the derby to “Manchester United” (and this is not counting the misfire in the quarter-finals of the League Cup with in- crisis Southampton), because of which the backlog from the capital challenger grew. While it's certainly early to say the title will go to London, there's less and less time to rectify the situation and Arteta's men rarely allow misfires. Yes, they were beaten in the FA Cup on Friday, but wasn’t priority competition for both teams.
Last season, Hotspurs managed to take 2 wins in the confrontation with the City. Moreover, in January, Conte's men took a 2-0 lead at half-time. But then they received 4 goals in response after the break. Now the Citizens are again seen as a fairly obvious favorite. But they allow defensive mistakes, just like the opponent. In addition, this is also a duel between Kane and Holland. We bet on “total over 3.0 goals”.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 scored goals.
