Ederson – Lewis, Stones, Akanji, Ake – Rodrigo, Gundogan, Grealish – Mahrez, Haaland, Alvarez.
It should be noted that De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva will play only as substitutes tonight.
“Tottenham” passed away
Spurs learned on Thursday that 25-year-old centre-back Anton Walkes, who had been training at the club, was missing. He has been playing in MLS since 2020 and had a first team game in 2016. Tottenham will wear black armbands in his memory tonight.
The two teams are expected to regroup
Last Saturday, “Manchester City” (2nd) lost to the “Red Devils” (1:2), “Tottenham” (5th) lost to their home fans in the derby, and the next day they lost to “Arsenal” (0:2). has been defeated. The Skyblues can take advantage of Manchester United’s poor performance (3rd) yesterday against Crystal Palace (1-1) to regain their 3-point lead and temporarily move back to 5 lengths behind the Gunners (1st). A win would allow Spurs to move 2 points clear of Newcastle (4th).
