Match Preview
Tottenham Hotspur Women host Manchester City Women at Brisbane Road on Sunday, 21 September, in a clash that highlights the contrasting form of both teams. Spurs have struggled recently, managing just one point from their last five matches, which includes four losses. In stark contrast, City are on a roll with a three-match winning streak, showcasing their attacking prowess and solidifying their position as title contenders.
An interesting angle to consider is Spurs' defensive vulnerabilities, particularly against high-pressing teams like City. Historically, in their last ten encounters, City have won six times and have often exploited Spurs' weaknesses, with eight of those matches featuring over 2.5 goals. If Tottenham are to stand a chance, they must tighten their defence and find a way to disrupt City’s rhythm. However, given the current form and head-to-head statistics, Manchester City are likely to dominate possession and create numerous scoring opportunities.
