STAR FOOTBALL PREVIEW Sun: Tottenham v Man City
Under-pressure Spurs boss Thomas Frank could really do with a result when his Tottenham side are visited by Manchester City on Sunday, writes JOE CITRONE.
Spurs’ league form has been very poor in recent weeks, with pressure really starting to ramp up on Frank, but they did pick up a useful win at Frankfurt in the Champions League in midweek, which saw them qualify for the last-16.
That doesn’t detract from the fact that Spurs find themselves languishing in 14th-positon in the Premier League, and although their Danish coach has been afforded time to turn things around, results need to improve fast.

If Manchester City are to have any chance of catching Arsenal at the top of the Premier League, Sunday’s clash with Spurs feels seismic – especially after Arsenal thrashed Leeds United 4–0 to move seven points clear at the summit.
Victory would trim that gap to four points, but defeat would firmly place the Gunners in the driving seat for the title.
Given Spurs’ struggles in the Premier League in recent weeks and months, it’s hard to look beyond a Manchester City victory here, and that’s why I am backing an away win to nil at 12/5 with starsports.bet.
