Tottenham Hotspur host Manchester City in the Premier League tonight, with Pep Guardiola’s side looking to stay within touching distance of league leaders Arsenal this weekend.

The Gunners’ 4-0 hammering of Leeds yesterday means that City begin the day seven points behind Mikel Arteta’s side, with Guardiola’s men hoping for a big result against a struggling Spurs side ahead of matches against Liverpool and Newcastle in coming weeks.

While Spurs are currently languishing in 14th in the table, they have consistently been a bogey side for Pep Guardiola over the course of his time in England tenure, and while the visitors will head in as heavy favourites, Spurs’ 2-0 win in the reverse fixture proves that they are capable of denting City’s title hopes this afternoon.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.

When is Tottenham vs Man City?

The match will take place on Sunday, 1 February at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with kick-off set for 4.30pm.

Team news

Thomas Frank’s main concern is the fitness of Micky van de Ven, who missed the game against Frankfurt and will face a late fitness test.

James Maddison, Rodrigo Bentancur, Mohammed Kudus, Ben Davies, Lucas Bergvall and Dejan Kulusevski are all sidelined for the foreseeable future for Spurs, and while Richarlison and Pedro Porro are nearing returns, they won’t be back until later in February.

For City, Jeremy Doku will likely miss this match after being forced off in the first half against Galatasaray, though the extent of his problem is not yet clear.

Josko Gvardiol and Mateo Kovacic are the long-term absentees, though John Stones, Ruben Dias and Savio won’t be returning until later next month.

Predicted line-ups

Tottenham XI: Vicario; Spence, Romero, van de Ven, Udogie; Gray, Palhinha; Odobert, Sarr, Simons; Solanke.

Tottenham Hotspur are through to the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League after beating Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 on Wednesday, thanks to goals scored by Randal Kolo Muani and Dominic Solanke.

Spurs (17 points) finish 4th in the league phase, bypassing the playoff round alongside other top-eight sides Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Barcelona, Chelsea, Sporting CP and Manchester City. That's 17 points in just eight games for Thomas Frank's side, meanwhile Spurs have just 28 from 23 games in the Premier League, where they currently sit 14th. Spurs won all four home games in the Champions League, but have won just two of 12 at home in the PL.

Eintracht Frankfurt (4 points) finish 33rd and are out of European competition this season.

It's been a mostly miserable first season in charge for Frank, but Spurs (14 points) sit 5th ahead of Wednesday's finale (3 pm ET) — not a bad debut in European competition, now if only they weren't 14th in the PL and slipping toward the relegation zone for the second straight season. Spurs, who have won just two of 11 home league games this season, won all four at home in the Champions League. Meanwhile, Spurs, who have picked up 19 of their 28 PL points away from home, are yet to win on the road in the Champions League. So unpredictable, it's predictable.

Tottenham Hotspur grabbed a point late on at Burnley but Thomas Frank is still in serious trouble as their manager.

MORE — Recap, video highlights

This time they took the lead at Burnley but were 2-1 down heading into the 90th minute. Then captain Cristian Romero equalized to snatch a point.

But Spurs fans in the away end turned against Frank in the second half with several chants lambasting his style of play and record at the north London club. To put it politely...

Below is the latest Thomas Frank reaction on yet another poor day for Spurs, as they sit just eight points above the relegation zone.

A week off? In this economy? Tottenham Hotspur will be well-rested heading into their latest London Derby, this one against struggling West Ham United. It remains to be seen, though, whether that rest will make a difference to a Spurs side that are trying to work through troubles of their own.

Some have therefore dubbed this match “El Sackico”, with both Thomas Frank and West Ham manager Nuno Espirito Santo at risk of losing their jobs with another poor performance. It’s the second edition of such a match in which Spurs have been involved, the last one interestingly enough also involving Nuno as his Spurs side suffered a 3-0 drubbing against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Manchester United.

There’s added intrigue as well with the January transfer window looming large. New signing Conor Gallagher could be involved for the Lilywhites, while West Ham have attempted to bolster their attacking options with the signings of Taty Castellanos and Pablo.

It’s probably not going to be high-quality football; but the potential ramifications are significant.

COYS!

Fabio Paratici thanks Tottenham for ‘accommodating’ his desire to return to Italy and promises he’ll be ‘watching’ the club closely as the new Fiorentina director.

Fiorentina and Tottenham confirmed on Wednesday that Paratici would become the Tuscans’ sporting director starting February 4, 2026.

This means the Italian director will complete the January transfer window in North London before returning to Italy.

“I want to thank Vinai and the Board of Tottenham Hotspur for accommodating my desire to return to Italy and join Fiorentina,” Paratici told Tottenham’s official website.

“I have loved my time at the Club, however this opportunity, together with the need to be based in my homeland, has led me to this decision.

“Spurs is a club that is very close to my heart. It has great people working for it, who are as passionate about the project as I am and want to bring sustained success. I have no doubt that they will achieve that and I will be watching closely from Italy.”

Paratici will take control of a struggling Fiorentina side that find themeselves fighting for survival with just 14 points in 20 Serie A matches.

Paratici to join Fiorentina in February

The Tuscans are three points from safety, but have been in good form in recent weeks, collecting one win and two draws in the last three league games.

Paratici returns to Italy after a long and successful spell at Juventus, where he first served as sporting director and then as the club’s Chief Football Officer.

The Italian moved to Tottenham in the summer of 2021 and returned to duties with the club in October 2025 after the completion of a 30-month ban.
