Overview

• Kickoff is 12:30 p.m. BST at the Etihad, with live coverage on TNT Sports/discovery+ in the UK and on NBC with streaming via Peacock and Fubo in the U.S.
• Both sides opened with convincing wins last weekend, as City beat Wolves 4-0 with an Erling Haaland brace and Tijjani Reijnders scoring and assisting, while Spurs topped Burnley 3-0 led by Richarlison and Mohammed Kudus.
• Pep Guardiola confirmed Rodri and Phil Foden are fit to rejoin the matchday squad after missing the opener.
• James Trafford is expected to retain the starting goalkeeper role for City as Ederson continues to be linked with a move away.
• Tottenham remain without key creators Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison, and recent meetings at the Etihad have been high-scoring, with City winning only four of the past 12 league games between the clubs.
