Manchester City V Tottenham: League Cup Final Preview, Predicted XI And Betting Odds

Manchester City will be heavy favourites for tomorrow’s Carabao Cup final at Wembley. The Citizens are not only in pretty good form but they will be facing a team without a permanent manager.

Tottenham’s decision to sack Jose Mourinho a week before the showpiece event is quite extraordinary, with caretaker coach Ryan Mason tasked with picking up the pieces.


In terms of team news, Kevin De Bruyne will face a late fitness test, but it is expected that the Belgian may only be ready for a place on the bench. Sergio Aguero (knock) is a doubt, while John Stones is suspended after his sending off against Aston Villa.

Manchester City’s Predicted XI To Face Spurs:

Ederson, Walker, Dias, Laporte, Zinchenko, Silva, Rodri, Gundogan, Mahrez, Gabriel Jesus, Foden


Tottenham have doubts over the fitness of Harry Kane (ankle) and Matt Doherty, while Ben Davies has been ruled out with a calf problem.

Spurs’ Predicted XI:

Lloris, Aurier, Alderweireld, Dier, Reguilon, Ndombele, Lo Celso, Hojbjerg, Bale, Moura, Son

The bookmakers have backed City for the win with William Hill pricing them at 1/2 to lift the trophy. A draw after 90 minutes is 15/4 with Betfair while a victory for Tottenham is 11/2 at BetVictor.

Predicted Score – City to win 3-1
