Manchester City StorylinesTottenham: Spurs were rocked on Wednesday morning by the news that head coach Antonio Conte had undergone successful surgery to remove his gallblader. In practical terms for this match, his assistant Cristian Stellini is expected to take charge and it remains to be seen whether the manager will be able to travel back to London from his native Italy and potentially be in the stadium. "Thank you for your lovely messages, " he wrote on social media. "My surgery has gone well and I'm already feeling better.

Tottenham vs. Manchester City live stream: Premier League prediction, TV channel, watch online, start timeManchester City find themselves with an unexpected opportunity as they travel to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, the day after Arsenal's surprising loss to Everton at Goodison Park, and there are few trips where Pep Guardiola has had quite as many difficulties as this one. City's last three league visits to Tottenham have seen them defeated by an aggregate margin of 5-0 while the head coach has lost on all four visits to Spurs' relatively new stadium, the ground he has managed the most games at without winning. Home and away, Spurs looked to have something of a hoodoo over City until last month, where the reigning champions overturned a two goal half time deficit to win 4-2.
Now it's time to recover, I can't wait to get back on the field with the team. "Conte will doubtless have a direct line to his staff when it comes to selection decisions, one of which will be whether to hand Pedro Porro a full debut after his deadline day move from Sporting Lisbon.
