PREVIEW: Spurs V Manchester City

Spurs will be hoping to bounce back from their midweek exit from the Capital One Cup at the hands on London rivals Arsenal by beating league leaders Manchester City at White Hart Lane.

Spurs will be looking to get back to winning ways after starting to pick up wins in recent weeks beating Sunderland and Crystal Palace in the Premier League but then came unstuck against Arsenal.

Bentaleb is still sidelined and Dembele and Mason are also doubts for the game, but Dele Alli is expected to play alongside Dier in midfield.
