Manchester City travel to the capital to take on Tottenham Hotspur in this afternoon’s Premier League fixture. The visitors have the chance to gain three points on Arsenal, after the Gunners fell to defeat against Everton yesterday.

Spurs can go within one point of fourth with a win this afternoon, thanks to West Ham United’s 1-1 draw with fourth place Newcastle United yesterday.

The last time both of these sides met was back in January, as the Citizens came back from being two goals down at half time to win 4-2, securing an incredibly important three-points as they remained hot on the tail of table-toppers Arsenal.
