Manchester City Vs Tottenham Football Match Score 5 February 2023
Manchester City have lost all four of their league and cup games at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium without scoring. City have suffered 27 Premier League defeats against Spurs, their joint-highest figure against a particular opponent. They have also lost 27 times against Chelsea in the competition. Tottenham have lost all five of their league matches this season against sides currently above them in the table.
Spurs are in danger of losing three consecutive top-flight home games for the first time since September 2008.
The Londoners could also equal a club record by going three consecutive home league fixtures without scoring, a sequence they last recorded in December 2008. Tottenham’s three wins in their past 15 home league games against reigning champions all came versus Manchester City.
Richarlison has been beaten in all 11 of his Premier League appearances against City, three short of the highest figure by a player with a 100% losing record.
Harry Kane, who has scored four times in 13 top-flight matches versus City, is one short of becoming the third player to net 200 Premier League goals, after Alan Shearer and Wayne Rooney.
Kane’s next goal will be his 267th in all competitions for Spurs, which would mean he surpasses Jimmy Greaves as the club’s record scorer (Tottenham do not include two goals netted by Greaves against Ipswich in the 1962 Charity Shield). Manchester City are vying to win three consecutive league matches for the first time this season.
They dropped points in only five Premier League away games last season but have done so four times already in the current campaign (W5, D2, L2).
Riyad Mahrez has been directly involved in 11 Premier League goals versus Tottenham, more than against any other opponent, netting seven times and assisting four. Erling Haaland’s total of 25 Premier League goals from 19 appearances is one short of the highest figure by a Manchester City player in a full season, set by Sergio Aguero in 2014-15.
Two of the world’s greatest goal scorers square off when Erling Haaland and Manchester City face Harry Kane and Tottenham in a Matchweek 22 Premier League match on Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. In his first season in the EPL, the 22-year-old Haaland leads the league in goals, with 25. The former Borussia Dortmund striker has 87 goals since the start of the 2020-21 season. Meanwhile the 29-year-old Kane ranks second in the EPL in goals, with 16.

Before locking in any Tottenham vs. Manchester City picks or EPL predictions, you need to see what proven SportsLine soccer insider Martin Green has to say.

Now, Green has broken down Manchester City vs. Tottenham from every angle and just revealed his picks and predictions. You can head to SportsLine now to see Green’s picks. Here are the betting lines and trends for Tottenham vs. Manchester City: City face a Tottenham side that has struggled at home this season. Spurs have lost four of 10 EPL matches at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium; only one other team in the top 14 in the EPL table has lost that many home matches. On the other hand, City have earned 17 points in just nine road matches this season, which is tied for the third most road points in the league.
In addition, Pep Guardiola’s men enter the game knowing they beat Spurs less than three weeks ago. On Jan. 19, City fell behind 2-0 at halftime before rallying for a 4-2 win. City owned 58% of possession and outshot Tottenham 16-9 that day.
Newly acquired right back Pedro Porro is expected to make his Spurs debut on Sunday. The 23-year-old on loan from Sporting Lisbon had 12 goals in 98 appearances for Sporting over the last 2½ seasons and was included in the Primeira Liga’s Team of the Year the last two seasons. On paper, he seems to be a perfect fit for Tottenham manager Antonio Conte’s wing-back system.
In addition, Spurs have had success finding the back of the net against Man City. Over the last two meetings, Tottenham have scored five combined goals against City. That includes two goals from Harry Kane, who scored a brace in the Feb. 19 matchup last year.
Green has broken down the Premier League match from every angle. He is picking Over on the goal total and has locked in two additional best bets. You can head to SportsLine to see his Premier League analysis and top picks. Premier League clashes don’t come much bigger than this as title chasers Manchester City make the long trip south to face Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
The last time these two sides met back in January, the Citizens fought back from being two goals down at half time to win 4-2, a mightily important three-point haul as they continue to hunt down table-toppers Arsenal.
Expect the action to continue here, especially given Spurs’ poor defensive record of late on home soil which has now seen them go five consecutive home league outings without a clean sheet. With the hosts needing a victory to potentially climb back into the Champions League spots and the visitors keen to close the gap on Arsenal with another win, the stage is set for another tense affair between these two English giants.
As usual with matches involving Manchester City, Pep Guardiola’s side have been made heavy favourites to win this all-important Premier League clash. That’s justified given Tottenham’s woes of late, especially on home soil where they’ve now lost four of their last five Premier League outings.
