    "It's a tough match and the two down the road after that (against Portsmouth and Arsenal) are also very difficult.

    "It shows he has the experience, he knows what he wants and he has got his team playing really well. "

    Tottenham 1-1 Man City



    This will be a thrilling battle at White Hart Lane, if only because Man City send out a very attacking side on their travels away from home. Tottenham will be minus Robbie Keane, but Darren Bent will be expected to fill in.
