Tottenham vs Man City - FA Cup: TV channel, team news, lineups and prediction

Tottenham play host to Manchester City in the FA Cup fourth round on Friday night.

Spurs supporters, who are desperate for a piece of silverware, couldn't believe their luck as they were drawn against Pep Guardiola's side so early in the competition, although City have a wretched record at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

England's dominant force are yet to score, let alone win, at Spurs' new ground.

The two sides played out yet another thriller at the Etihad back in December as Ange Postecoglou's short-handed visitors snatched a 3-3 draw in Manchester. Spurs will once again be without several key players for City's Friday night visit.

After enduring their annual blip before Christmas, Guardiola's world champions have rattled off six straight wins in all competitions.

Here's preview of Friday night's FA Cup fourth round tie.

Pape Matar Sarr, Yves Bissouma and Son Heung-min are all away on international duty.

Tottenham predicted lineup vs Man City (4-3-3): Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Kulusevski, Skipp; Johnson, Richarlison, Werner.
