Former Tottenham chairman Lord Sugar believes the club can take belief from Celtic’s performance against Manchester City.

City’s 100 per cent start to the season came to an end last night, as they drew 3-3 at Celtic.

Tottenham face the Premier League leaders this weekend in a top of the table clash, and Sugar comments that City’s defending can be taken advantage of.

Tottenham though will have plenty of belief already they can beat City, having done so twice last season, putting six past them in two games.

With Pep Guardiola in charge, City will hope they are harder to beat and even more dangerous going forward, but Celtic certainly showed last night that they can be caught out at the back, conceding a goal at the beginning of each half.

Tottenham won their Champions League tie in midweek, winning 1-0 away to CSKA Moscow to move within a point of top spot in their group.

They may be missing last season’s top scorer Harry Kane this weekend, but Heung-Min Son is in outstanding form and could propel them to another victory.
