Mark Lawrenson makes prediction for Tottenham vs Manchester City

  The Premier League champions Manchester City kick off the new season with an away game against Tottenham on Sunday, August 15. The Spurs approach the new season with a new coach as Nuno Espirito Santo was appointed as the head coach in June. Ahead of the game, BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson has stated his prediction. "We can't talk about this fixture without mentioning Tottenham striker Harry Kane. "I don't see Kane being able to feature in this game because he has not been training with his team-mates all week but the bigger issue is that no-one knows which of these teams he will be playing for in September. Watch this space. "As for the game, Manchester City are without the injured Phil Foden but they are not exactly short of creative attacking players, are they? "This is a new start for Spurs under Nuno Espirito Santo, and they have a couple of new players too, but I don't see them stopping City from taking the three points." Lawrenson's prediction: 0-2   source - BBC / Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
