The Cityzens moved five points clear atop the Premier League standings with a 4-1 win at Liverpool this past weekend. City have won 10 league games on the bounce and are unbeaten in 14 matches since losing to Spurs back in November. 
 
"Huge victory for us. Three more points at the end but I take into consideration the fact we won after we missed a penalty and conceded a goal. The way we reacted, that made the difference," City manager Pep Guardiola said following their win at Liverpool. 

"For many years we were not able to win here, hopefully next time we can do it with people inside. Anfield is so intimidating."

Guardiola added: "It's an important win but it is February. Of course the gap to fifth is big right now and that means for the Champions League for next season is important but 10 (league) wins in a row in this period is something exceptional." 
 
Spurs have struggled for consistency since their win over City but broke a three-game losing streak with a comfortable 2-0 win over West Brom last time out. The result moved the North London club up to eighth, 14 points behind City.
