Man City are under pressure to end a four-game losing streak and close the gap on leaders Liverpool.
It was also the first time in his coaching career that Pep Guardiola had suffered four consecutive defeats in all competitions. The stumbles against Tottenham, Bournemouth, Sporting CP and Brighton left the reigning Premier League champions facing a crisis.
They are 5 points behind Liverpool, but the good news is that after the international break, many of their key players have recovered from injuries, including Kevin De Bruyne, Jack Grealish, Bernardo Silva.
Welcoming Spurs to the Etihad, Man City need to be wary as they have lost to this opponent 4 times in the last 10 matches. However, Tottenham also have their own problems.
Consecutive defeats have dented Spurs' confidence, especially the home defeat to Ipswich Town - who are second from bottom in the table. Maintaining consistency remains a challenge for Ange Postecoglou's men, who have won just four of their 18 away games in the past 12 months.
