Tottenham vs Man City confirmed team news: Kyle Walker returns

Tottenham host Man City on Tuesday night in what is arguably the biggest game of the Premier League this season as the game has major implications for the title race and the final Champions League spot.
Spurs watch Aston Villa go down to Liverpool on Monday night, meaning that if Ange Postecoglou’s men get all three points against Man City, they will go into the final Champions League race until the final day of the season and will be two points adrift. Unai Emery’s team.
That’s the motivation for Tottenham tonight, even if most of their fans don’t care about their club losing to the Premier League champions as a win would benefit their bitter North London rivals Arsenal.
Last time out, Spurs won 2-1 against Burnley, ending a four-game losing streak.
In Tuesday night’s game, Postecoglou made three changes in the win over the Clarets with Oliver Skipp, Yves Bissouma and Dejan Kulusevski replaced by Radu Dragusin, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Rodrigo Bentancur.

As for Man City, the trip to Tottenham is essentially a cup final for Pep Guardiola’s men as a win would give them the Premier League title. The Manchester club are looking to make history this season by becoming the first team to win four league titles in a row and many see Spurs as the final hurdle.
City have been in outstanding form recently and cannot drop points in North London. If they fail to win, it will put Arsenal in control going into the last game of the season on Sunday and that is not a position Guardiola wants to be in.
Man City won 4-0 against Fulham on Saturday and Guardiola made one change from the starting XI as Kyle Walker returned to replace Nathan Ake, who was injured against the Cottagers at the weekend.
