Tottenham vs Manchester City: Ange Postecoglou Hints His Team Could Do Arsenal a Favour

• Manchester City are two victories away from a fourth successive Premier League title
• Their next assignment is a tough away trip to North London to face 5th-placed Spurs
• Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou had a subtle message for Guardiola ahead of the game

Tottenham boss, Ange Postecoglou, insists his side will try to frustrate Manchester City when the two sides meet on Tuesday, May 14.

A positive result for the North Londoners against Pep Guardiola’s side will effectively hand Arsenal the Premier League title, but Postecoglou remains unfazed by the ramifications of the title race.

With two games remaining, Tottenham players still have something to fight for. They sit four points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa.

“We’ve still got six points to play for, that’s the key thing for us,” the Spurs boss said, per Metro.

“We’ve got a big game on Tuesday night against Man City, that’ll be a great test for us. Then we’ve got Sheffield United away so let’s see where we can get to and where we end up playing our football.

The North Londoners have an outside chance of qualifying for Champions League football, but they are heavily reliant on the Villans suffering a late-season collapse in their remaining fixtures against Liverpool and Crystal Palace.

Since European football is at stake, Postecoglou’s side is likely to give it their all against City, despite the possibility of handing the title to their North London rivals Arsenal.

The win took Mikel Arteta’s side a point clear of the Citizens with one game of their campaign remaining.

If City drop points against Spurs, the title race will be in Arsenal's hands, and a win against Everton on the final day could potentially secure their first league title in two decades.

Postecoglou expects his side to have a go at City despite the threat posed by the three-time defending champions.

He added, "They’re an outstanding them. Them and Arsenal are the benchmark [in the Premier League] right now, they’re 20-odd points ahead of us so we’ve got some ground to make up. "
