Looking through our fixtures, tomorrow is a date when we can have realistic hopes of catching Spurs

Sunderland have an excellent record at home, and Spurs have a lot of players out. But set against that Sunderland's need to win has gone. They are virtually safe now, and they played Liverpool in friendly mode.

A few players like Bent, Malbranque & Reid have something to prove, but I don't know if they are all available.
 
I don't know what the bookies odds are on these games, but I don't rate our chances that highly. We play Burnley at a time when they know if they get beat they are effectively relegated. They will give everything. Sunderland were fighting like dogs when we played them, but will they tomorrow?

I'll settle for City matching Spurs result. After Sunderland they start on a really tough run of games
 
Their home record has been good recently.

But now it suits us to for them to continue that run they will no doubt lose.

The pressure is off Sunderland and they can play without fear. Also, Darren Bent owes Twitcher one big time after his wifey comments.

Could be close so I am going for a draw and us to nick it at Burnley.
 
After they surrendered so meekly to the dippers I expect elephant man to have them fired up for tomorrow and can see them nicking a point.

3 points for us and level with spuds by tomorrow evening.
 
Spurs have won their last two away recently, but they were against Wigan and Portsmouth. Prior to that they won one of their last nine away.

Sunderland have only lost once at home since August.

Burnley have recently lost at home to Blackburn, Portsmouth and Wolves.

Spurs will be delighted to still be two points ahead of us by tomorrow night.
 
I'm more concerned with us getting 3 pts to be honest.
I think Spuds will win though
