General view of White Hart Lane
Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City will face each other at White Hart Lane in the Premier League this weekend.
Hosts Spurs are second in the league table at the moment with 14 points from six matches.
Pep Guardiola’s side are in sensational form in the Premier League and currently find themselves at the top of the standings with 18 points from six games.
Sunday afternoon’s match between Tottenham and City in North London promises to be an exciting affair.
These are the three City players Spurs need to be careful of on Sunday afternoon:
Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero
Sergio Aguero
Sergio Aguero is arguably the best striker in the Premier League and has been in brilliant form so far this season.
The 28-year-old striker has scored five goals and created six chances in four league matches.
The former Atletico Madrid star is one of the best finishers in the world, and the Tottenham defence cannot give him any space.
If Aguero is not kept quiet, then Spurs will find it tough to even pick up a point from the encounter.

Raheem Sterling
Raheem Sterling has been one of the best players for City this campaign and seems to be rejuvenated figure.
Under manager Guardiola, the England international, who can play as an attacking midfielder or as a winger, is flourishing.
The 21-year-old has scored four goals and created seven chances in six league games for City.
Tottenham’s two full-backs have to be alert and must be more defensive than they usually are in order to combat the threat posed by the former Liverpool youngster.
David Silva
David Silva remains a world-class attacking midfielder, and he continues to play well.
The Spain international has yet to score a goal in the Premier League this season, but he has created 13 chances in five league matches.
The 30-year-old will be looking to pull the strings for City on Sunday, and Tottenham have to close him down whenever he gets the ball.
