Substitution

71'De Bruyne on for Aguero.

66'He almost makes up for it a minute later with a dipping volley that Lloris does well to keep out!
-
65'Aguero misses one-on-one with Lloris!
-
60'Still nothing doing for Tottenham. Unless Mendy makes a mistake then they are struggling to get in behind the defence.

55'Off the line! Sterling misses a golden chance!
Yellow card
-

-
44'Lucas Moura goes down with a shocking dive and is rightfully booked.
-
43'Almost an opening for Aguero but Mahrez's cross is deflected and Lloris gathers.
-
38'But again City come forward. Lloris saves before they win a corner, inviting more pressure around the box.
-
34'Great chance! Tottenham break and suddenly Harry Kane is bearing down on goal. His first touch is heavy though and it gives Ederson to opportunity to rush out and smother the ball. You would expect him to score those.
-
28'Almost a second for Mahrez but Lloris pulls off a fine save at the near post.
-
23'Sissoko wastes a great opening for Tottenham after getting free down the right. Mendy misjudges a ball and his compatriot is free, but his cross can't find a team mate.
-
20'The Spurs midfield is struggling to contain any City player. They are passing the ball through them with ease.
-
16'City look a real threat every time they come forward, which is often. Tottenham are keeping a high line and there is plenty of space in behind.
-
12'End to end stuff, and everything for City is going through Raheem Sterling. He sends another effort goalwards but Trippier blocks.
-
10'Spurs come forward again but Laporte recovers to clear Trippier's cross. Corner.
-
9'Almost an immediate response from Tottenham but Kane sends an effort just over the bar!

Start of match

PRVWThe teams are out on the field and kickoff is not far away. The pitch does not look great.
-
PRVWRather suprisingly, Pep Guardiola has gone with the lineup that most people thought he would.
-
PRVWHugo Lloris retains his place in goal despite some well-documented struggles. The shock selection is Moussa Sissoko playing in place of Christian Eriksen.
-
PRVWMan City XI: Ederson, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Mendy, Fernandinho, Silva, Mahrez, Bernardo, Sterling, Aguero

PRVWThat aside, City will be looking to return to the top of the table, while Spurs needs points to put themselves back in contention! We will have team news shortly.
-
PRVWThree NFL games have been played in London over the last fortnight, and the pitch at the national stadium is showing some serious signs of wear with the most recent game being played yesterday. Kevin de Bruyne remarked earlier that similar experience of using NFL pitches on tours of the USA in pre-season was 'not nice'.
-
PRVWTottenham recently confirmed that they would play all home games up to December 29th, as delays and costs on their new stadium spiral out of control. Not only has this angered the fans - many of whom bought tickets after being promised a state-of-the-art venue to call their own - but Wembley was already committed to other events.
-
PRVWThis is a big clash at the top of the table, but all the talk ahead of the game has centred on one thing: the pitch.
