History of the Manchester City v Tottenham Hotspur fixture

Man City prepare to entertain Tottenham Hotspur at City of Manchester Stadium on Sunday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Sky Blues are clearly on top, having won 30 and lost only 12 of the 55 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at City of Manchester Stadium was less than a year ago, in December 2002, with Tottenham inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the Sky Blues in a Premiership match.
