Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City: 2021 EFL Cup Finalists Clash Again in 2024 Round 4

2021 EFL Cup finalists, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City, will face off again in Round 4 of the competition on Wednesday, when Pep’s boys come to visit the Tottenham Stadium, a place they’ve had a torrid time at previously.

Tottenham looks to Reignite Cup Glory | Home Win = 2.53

Spurs, hungry to end a 16-year trophy drought, narrowly missed out on this trophy by a lone goal when the two sides met in 2021 and it would be some form of revenge if they could get one over City in the competition.

Spurs Players Celebrating Goal

Despite an inconsistent league start, Tottenham remains dangerous, with four straight home wins in all competitions, something that should give Postecoglou’s side a lot of confidence coming into this crunch encounter.

This EFL Cup represents Spurs’ best shot at lifting a trophy this season since their first EFL Cup success since 2008. If they can shake off recent defensive lapses, an upset against City may be within reach.

City Players Celebrating a Goal

Manchester City is known for their success in domestic cups, but recent exits for the past three (3) years consecutively, last lifting it in 2021, have meant they’ve lost their Cup street cred.

Guardiola’s men enter Wednesday’s game on a five-match winning streak, thanks to Haaland’s clinical form, and will hope that their incredible form will be enough to get them the win against Spurs in front of their fans for only the third time since 2019.

City’s lineup could feature youngsters, given Guardiola’s intent to rotate. De Bruyne and Walker remain absent, and academy players may fill the void. Erling Haaland’s scoring prowess, however, provides City with a significant edge.
