Tottenham vs. Man City Betting Tips: Mahrez to find the net in 15/1 double

Live on Sky Sports, Tottenham host Manchester City in the premier league at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Sunday and @Tipster Wizard is on hand with his best bets.

The hosts sit fifth in the league table with 36 points, three points behind the Champions League spots. Conte’s men were well on their way to pull off a huge upset at the Etihad Stadium as they went into halftime with a 2-0 lead but a remarkable comeback by the Citizens meant they still ended up on the losing side. 

• Player Fouls Betting Guide

Since losing that game, Tottenham have beaten Fulham away from home as well as eased past Preston in the FA Cup 3rd round, keeping a clean sheet in both games. 

As for the visitors, Manchester City sit 2nd in the league table with 45 points, five points behind league-leaders Arsenal having played an extra game heading into the weekend. Guardiola knows his team can not afford to drop any points here if they are to catch The Gunners and will be hoping to do the double over Spurs. 

This is a ground where Tottenham have had the upper hand on City, winning all four head to head meetings against them here without conceding a single goal across those four games. However, Conte’s men have lost four of their last five premier league games at this ground in recent weeks so this is a tough game to predict and I will steer clear of result based bets in my preview.

A mouth watering premier league clash awaits us, and as usual I have you covered with 2 of my best betting angles below:

Team News:

Lucas Moura & Pape Sarr are out for Tottenham while Richarlison is doubtful.

John Stones is out for Manchester City while Foden is doubtful.

Tottenham possible starting lineup:

Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Porro, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Perisic; Kulusevski, Kane, Son

Manchester City possible starting lineup:

Ederson; Lewis, Akanji, Laporte, Ake; Gundogan, Rodri, De Bruyne; Mahrez, Haaland, Grealish

- Heung Min Son Over 1.5 shots in the match

- Rodri Over 0.5 tackles in the match

Son averages 3.9 shots per game at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium in the Premier League managing to hit at least two shots in every home game so far in the league. He hit five shots the last time he was up against Manchester City at this venue and scored two goals in his last appearance for Spurs in the FA Cup so will be full of confidence. 

As for the tackles, Rodri averages 2.3 tackles per game in the premier league and managed to hit three tackles last time these teams faced each other. 

Combining these 2 selections gives us a solid bet builder @ 5/6 and I am happy to stake 1pt on that as our main bet for this game.

Mahrez has been voted as Manchester City’s player of the month as he has been in scintillating form recently, scoring eight goals in his last 11 appearances in all competitions. He also scored two goals against Tottenham in the reverse fixture. 

Bentancur is Tottenham’s most booked player with six yellow cards to his name and has been booked in two of his last three league appearances. Combining these two selections gives us a cracking longshot @ 15/1 with Unibet, whereas most other bookmakers are offering this double around 10/1. Happy to take it with a small 0.25pt stake as our 2nd bet for this game.

Best of luck if you follow these selections. Please always gamble responsibly.
