Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 08/23/25

Manchester City followers will have been relieved to have seen the quality with which they dispatched Wolves in their opening English Premier League game of the campaign on Saturday and that sets them up for what should be an entertaining clash with Tottenham. The Citizens were humbled 4-0 at home to Spurs in what was one of the north London club’s most impressive results under Ange Postecoglou, and the visitors will like their chances after they beat Burnley 3-0 in their opener. That came after they were pegged back by 2 late goals and then fell in a Super Cup penalty shootout against Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain, but the quality of that performance when they went toe-to-toe with Europe’s best team should provide Thomas Frank’s side with the confidence they can match anyone.

Spurs should definitely provide more of a test for the City defense and Richarlison epitomized their belief levels with 2 goals against the Clarets when he has perhaps not been seen at his best in a Tottenham shirt. Spurs have never been afraid to push forward when visiting the Citizens and Brighton were the only team to finish in the top 9 last season who conceded more home goals than Pep Guardiola’s side. This one has all the makings of a goalfest.
