Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur will meet for the 154th time in all competitions on Saturday.
We look at some notable clashes between the sides:
Manchester City 2 Tottenham Hotspur 2 (Premier League, Jan. 2017)
Pep Guardiola`s City looked on course to bounce back from their 4-0 humiliation at Everton when they took a 2-0 lead against Tottenham, only for the London side to come from behind and salvage an unlikely draw in controversial circumstances.
City went ahead in the second half through forward Leroy Sane`s cool finish after a poor headed clearance from Spurs goalkeeper Hugh Lloris. Lloris spilt a cross five minutes later, allowing midfielder Kevin De Bruyne to tap in to make it 2-0.
After Dele Alli`s header gave Spurs a lifeline, they made it 2-2 with 13 minutes to go through forward Son Heung-min`s finish inside the box even as City fumed at not being given a penalty for Kyle Walker`s push on Raheem Sterling at the other end.
The result kept City in fifth, three points behind second-placed Spurs and nine away from eventual champions Chelsea. Guardiola`s men ended the season in third place behind Spurs.
