Pep Guardiola goes to Wembley looking to avoid a fourth successive defeat for only the second time in his managerial career – if City win and Manchester United lose on Sunday, the league title is theirs. With a top four place almost secured, Tottenham should provide a stiff test having won the corresponding fixture 2-0 last January. Ed Aarons
