TEAM NEWS
Guardiola provided fitness updates on Erling Haaland, Manuel Akanji, Ederson and John Stones in his pre-Spurs press conference.
“He’s okay now,” Guardiola said about Ederson, although Stefan Ortega Moreno has started our most recent FA Cup clashes.
Haaland has not featured since the defeat to Aston Villa at the beginning of December after suffering a foot injury.
“He’s on the verge of coming back,” Guardiola added. “Tomorrow, still he is not ready but he is close.
“Some training sessions he has trained in the last two days. It’s not perfect so we wait a little bit more.
Stones has also been out since being forced of with in the win at Everton at Christmas while Akanji was injured in the third round FA Cup win over Huddersfield.
“Akanji is out and John has come back,” the boss said. “He will be [in contention for] team selection but he is back with us.”
City have already been boosted by the return of Kevin De Bruyne following his two substitute appearances against Huddersfield Town and at Newcastle, as he gets up to full speed following surgery on a hamstring injury in August.
Jack Grealish was also on the bench against Newcastle despite suffering from illness.
PREVIOUS MEETING
Our most recent encounter saw City play host to a pulsating 3-3 draw in December.
A late Dejan Kulusevski goal cancelled out a Heung-min Son own goal and strikes from Phil Foden and Jack Grealish to see the points shared at the Etihad.
In the FA Cup, our last meeting with Spurs dates back to February 2004 where second half goals from Sylvain Distin, Paul Bosvelt, Shaun Wright-Phillips and Jon Macken inspired a magnificent 4-3 comeback in the replay.
LAST TIME OUT
City’s most recent fixture saw us travel to St. James’ Park for a tough clash with Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United.
Bernardo Silva gave City the lead near the half hour mark before goals from Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon in quick succession saw Newcastle lead at the break.
Four-and-a-half minutes into his Premier League return, Kevin De Bruyne’s ranged strike drew us level before a sublime Oscar Bobb goal in added time snatched all three points for City.
