Premier League rivals Tottenham and Manchester City have been pitted against one another in the Champions League quarter-finals.

A place in the last four is on offer for either Mauricio Pochettino or Pep Guardiola, who will both fancy their chances of progressing after avoiding the likes of Barcelona and Juventus in the draw.

Score prediction: Tottenham 1-1 Man City

Man City won 1-0 at Wembley in the Premier League earlier this season, and will be confident of scoring at least one away goal in the first leg.

However, Spurs will surely be buoyed by the prospect of playing at their new stadium, and have earned some famous European home wins in recent years.

With neither manager likely to commit to the tie on the night, it could be a cagey affair to set up a second-leg shootout in Manchester.
