Manchester City - Tottenham Hotspur predictions

With the odds set at 1.50 for a home win, Manchester City winning is clearly the most likely outcome in this matchup. Bigger upsets have happened, of course, but we wouldn’t expect anything but a decisive home win.

The current perspective makes the situation plain as day. Given the superiority of Manchester City and the 6.00 odds given to Tottenham Hotspur to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be a stunning upset.

Top bookmakers online were backing The Sky Blues to record a clean-cut victory at Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out. Despite the favourable betting odds, Manchester City struggled to get their foot upfront both at the halftime and in the end.

The visiting team won their previous Premier League matchup 3:0 after maintaining a lead throughout the runtime. Their home supporters were likely glad to enjoy the HT/FT victory, but the favourable pre-match betting odds mean that the victory was quite expected.

Although a home win is priced at 1.50, you should consider the previous season’s record before placing any bets. Tottenham won a match last year with a considerable goal difference, so the situation is not as clear-cut as it might seem.

Saturday's matchup will see both teams at full strength, free of injuries and suspensions.

An Under 3.5 Goals bet is an interesting choice for this match. It’s quite safe as you might expect, but the 1 odds offer more in the way of betting value than you would think.
