Theo Walcott has shared his prediction for Manchester City’s Premier League meeting with Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.

Manchester City will hope to make it two Premier League victories in a row after running out 4-0 winners over Wolverhampton Wanderers last week.

The Citizens are playing at home for the first time since 20 May and will be eager to give a packed Etihad Stadium a great display and result.

However, Tottenham have also started the season well, running out 3-0 winners over Burnley last week.

The former Arsenal, Everton and Southampton man also tipped Erling Haaland to find the back of the net for the third time this term.

“I’m going to go for a 3-0 Man City and Haaland (to score),” Walcott said when asked for his prediction for Saturday’s fixture.

Early Manchester City team news vs Tottenham

Man City have a number of doubts for the game which Pep Guardiola is expected to address at his press conference on Friday.

Ederson, Phil Foden, Rodri, Josko Gvardiol and Savinho all missed the Wolves game and are likely to be discussed at Guardiola’s presser.

It remains to be seen whether Ederson and Savinho will feature even if fit, as both are being linked with a move away from City this summer.

Ederson could be on the way to Galatasaray, while Spurs have set their sights on Savinho.

Mateo Kovacic is a long-term absentee as he continues to recover from an Achilles injury that is expected to keep him out until at least September.
