Ange Postecoglu has seen many highs and lows during the ongoing Premier League season with many fans and pundits even asking for his sacking when the team was ebbing and hurting with losses on the trot. Things seemed to have taken a turn for better times as Spurs are on a three-match winning streak which includes a 1-0 win against Manchester United as well.
Ranked 12th in the Premier League table, Spurs are far away from the European spots but a few more wins could put them into the reckoning before the end of the season.
Like Postecoglu, Pep Guardiola has witnessed a season full of highs and lows as Manchester City was recently knocked out of the UEFA Champions League by Real Madrid.
In the absence of Rodri, City’s defense has been brutally exposed as they have conceded the most number of goals (37) amongst the top seven teams in the Premier League. Guardiola has made a few signings in January to stabilize his side but it would require a lot from the 4th-placed side to win at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium where they have a poor record in recent fixtures.
The Playoffs aim to facilitate the safest bets for the game. Have a look at the predictions for the game below.
Total goals Over 3.5 @ -135 (MGM Bet): Considering the number of key defenders missing out through injury along with the fact that Tottenham vs Manchester City is always a high-scoring thriller, we expect a lot of goals to be scored in this fixture on Wednesday evening.
Tottenham Total goals Over 2.5 @ +280 (MGM Bet): Tottenham has already defeated Manchester City twice this season including a 2-1 win that knocked the Sky Blues out of the League Cup. With Maddison back in form and the duo of Johnson and Hueng-min Son running behind the City defense, Spurs could end up with a lot of goals on Wednesday.

Phil Foden (To Score a Goal @ +1100 as per MGM Bet): In Erling Haaland’s absence, Phil Foden would be the key player for Manchester City, especially given the poor form of skipper Kevin de Bruyne.
Foden would be in charge of creating chances from the midfield and would be hoping to break his duck of not scoring in league matches since putting the game to bed against Chelsea with an 87th-minute goal more than a month ago.
The Lilywhites would be hoping for a fourth consecutive win at home and a 3-1 win for the hosts look likely as Manchester City, who are only 2 points above 8th-placed Aston Villa are in for a tough period as they face Nottingham Forest and Brighton & Hove Albion in March before the international break.
