The 2025/26 Premier League schedule includes a busy Saturday slate of five matches highlighted by Manchester City versus Tottenham. Manchester City ended 2024/25 without silverware but closed strongly, earning 19 points from their final seven league games and starting this season with a 4-0 away win at Wolves. Manchester City possess a dominant home record, winning their last five Etihad fixtures by a combined 13-4 and suffering only one home league defeat this calendar year. Tottenham have changed managers after winning the Europa League, entering a new era under Thomas Frank ahead of the trip to the Etihad.
Eventually forced to settle for a bronze medal finish among England's elite last season and finishing the 2024/25 campaign without a piece of silverware to show for their troubles, Manchester City certainly have plenty of expectations on their shoulders this time around. However, signing off last season by mustering 19 points from their final seven Premier League appearances, Pep Guardiola's superstar squad came flying out of the traps last weekend.
With their sights firmly set on recapturing their Premier League crown this year, Man City also hold a fearsome reputation for their extended dominance on home soil. In fact, the Sky Blues won all of their final five top-flight showdowns at the Etihad by an aggregate score of 13-4. Likewise, Guardiola's camp have suffered just a single Premier League defeat in front of their own supporters so far this calendar year.
