- Tottenham is a +0.5-goal home underdog against Manchester City.
- Manchester City has won 34 of its last 36 EPL Wednesday night matches.
- My Tottenham vs. Man City prediction focuses on the pregame over/under.
One of the marquee midweek EPL fixtures pits an improving Tottenham against Manchester City.Â
Tottenham earned a third straight win with a 4-1 thrashing of Ipswich Town on Saturday. Still, Tottenham sits 12th in the league table, 10 points back of the European positions.Â
Man City fell 2-0 to Liverpool on Sunday, their second consecutive loss in all competitions. As it stands, City occupies the fourth and final Champions League spot.Â

Tottenham vs. Man City Prediction
Based on the lack of quality in both defenses and the high-scoring nature of this fixture, my Tottenham vs. Man City prediction is Over 3.5 Goals (-135).Â
Recent meetings between these clubs have proven quite high-scoring. Across the last six head-to-head league meetings, four cleared 3.5 goals.Â
In the lone head-to-head meeting this season, Tottenham captured a 4-0 win while creating 3.43 post-shot xG against City.Â
But Pep Guardiola’s side ran unlucky offensively in that match. City failed to score off 2.14 expected goals and 1.1 post-shot xG, per fotmob.com.Â
Bettors should expect Tottenham’s offensive success continues against City, which ranks 10th in expected goals against and post-shot xGA, per fbref.com.Â
Conversely, Tottenham ranks sixth and ninth in the corresponding offensive categories.Â
That said, bettors should sell high on Tottenham’s defensive performance at Ipswich Town.Â
Against one of the league’s worst attacks, Spurs surrendered 1.15 xG and three big scoring chances.Â
Now, they’ll face a City team fourth in both expected goals and post-shot xG. Defensively, Tottenham rank 16th and 15th in the corresponding metrics.Â
History also likes this match clearing 3.5 goals.Â
Since last season, fixtures featuring a total set at 3.5 goals are 29-8 to the over, assuming two factors:
- The away team’s average number of goals scored falls between 1.5 and 2.1
- The away team’s average number of goals allowed falls between 1.2 and 1.5
When those matches feature a home underdog: 10-4 to the over at 3.5 goals.
