Tottenham v Manchester City Premier League Betting Tips 26/02/2025

Tottenham host Manchester City in the Premier League on Wednesday, with both teams eyeing a positive result for different reasons, so here’s our Tottenham v Manchester City Premier League Betting Tips. Spurs’ form has improved recently and Ange Postecoglou’s side will be looking to make a strong finish to the season, despite still sitting in the Premier League’s bottom half. Man City are desperately clinging on to a top-four spot. However, the Citizens have serious competition from the chasing pack. This match kicks off at 7:30 p.m. It will be shown live on TNT Sports.

Form and Team News

Tottenham are 12th in the Premier League and six points off the top half. However, the North London outfit has improved recently and won their last three league matches in a row. The improved form began with a 2-0 win at Brentford. Spurs followed that result with a 1-0 home win against Man United and a 4-1 victory at Ipswich. Reigning Premier League champions Man City are in another tricky patch of form and have lost four of their last six in all competitions. City suffered a 6-3 aggregate defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League, either side of a 4-0 home win against Newcastle. The Citizens were then outclassed by Liverpool on Sunday in a 2-0 home loss. Pep Guardiola’s side remain inside the Premier League’s top four on goal difference following that defeat.

Spurs’ injury crisis has eased recently, but they are still without Radu Dragusin Dominic Solanke, Cristian Romero, Richarlison and Micky van de Ven. City also have a few players unavailable, with Rodri, Manuel Akanji and John Stones injured.

Match Winner Bet

Although City are going through another difficult run of form, they are still considered the bookies’ favourites here. City have won three of their previous five league matches, but their away form is a concern, with three defeats in four in all competitions. 888Sport’s 21/20 odds perhaps seem a little generous given City’s inconsistencies. A draw might be a more likely outcome, especially with Tottenham in harder-to-beat form recently. There is also good value in backing a stalemate, and BetVictor has 16/5 odds. As Spurs have winning momentum, we can see them taking control here against an underperforming City. Tottenham have won three of their last four at home, including wins over Liverpool and Man United. In addition, Postecoglou’s team has already beaten Manchester City twice this season, 2-1 at home in the EFL Cup and 4-0 away in the league. Spurs may just have the edge on Wednesday and 23/10 odds, provided by Matchbook, represent decent value for a home victory. 

Over/Under Goals Betting

We aren’t expecting a particularly open encounter between Spurs and Man City. Tottenham have generally kept things tight at home recently. They have produced under 3.5 total goals in five consecutive matches at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Recent encounters between these sides in North London have also been fairly low-scoring. The last three games have ended with under 3.5 total goals. Betfred is offering evens for under 3.5 goals to land again on Wednesday, which could be a decent alternative pick. 

Anytime Goalscorer Bets

On the goalscoring front, it looks like Manchester City’s Erling Haaland will return after missing out against Liverpool on Sunday. This could give City a boost in the attacking department, considering Haaland has scored nine goals in his last 10 appearances. The Norwegian striker was also very profitable during his last visit to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, scoring twice in a 2-0 win for City in the 2023/24 season. At evens, Unibet has fair value for a Haaland anytime goal. But a Spurs attacker who has returned from injury in top form is Brennan Johnson. The Welsh forward is Tottenham’s joint-top Premier League scorer with nine goals in just 17 starts. He also capped his first league start since January with a brace on Saturday in the 4-1 win over Ipswich. Johnson is expected to lead the Spurs line on Wednesday, and he is our top anytime scorer pick against City. BetMGM has the best value for Johnson to score at any time goals with 13/5.
