Man City vs Tottenham LIVE
Uefa Champions League
Quarter-final, second leg (aggregate 0-1)
Venue: Etihad Stadium, Manchester
Kick-off: 8pm GMT, tonight
Tottenham and Manchester City go head to head tonight with a Champions League semi-final against Ajax on offer to the victors.
Heung-min Son’s goal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on April 9 sees Spurs travel to Manchester with a 1-0 advantage for tonight's quarter-final second leg.
Manager Mauricio Pochettino's admission after last week’s win that Man City are still favourites to win the Champions League outright is representative of the task that Spurs face despite that lead... and they will take it on without Harry Kane.
Pep Guardiola, meanwhile, was clearly angered by his side’s defeat in London and is likely to bring back Kevin De Bruyne as City look to overturn the deficit.

Score prediction: Man City 2-0 Tottenham (after extra time), 2-1 on aggregate
Tottenham’s challenge has been made all the harder with Kane’s injury and, while he may not have scored in their first-leg win, his hold-up play and work rate will be sorely missed.
Spurs will test City on the counter-attack with the pace of Lucas and Son, but City should have enough to get the job done – though don’t be surprised if this one goes beyond the 90.
