"I am going 3-2 City. There is going to be goals," Neville said.
Paul Scholes agreed with Neville's prediction.
Roy Keane then added his view on this match, stating that he thinks this game will be 3-1 to Manchester City.
Manchester City's record against Tottenham
Neville, Keane and Scholes think that City will win this one, but this match will be far from straightforward if the form book is anything to go by.
While City have been an unbeatable winning machine for most of Pep Guardiola's tenure, Spurs have been the one team who have caused them big problems.
Indeed, Pep Guardiola has even joked about City's poor record against Spurs.

Tottenham actually won the last meeting between these two teams in the Carabao Cup earlier this season.
Guardiola called Tottenham 'incredible' after that cup defeat, and Spurs will be hoping to repeat the trick here and beat City again.
Of course, beating City is much easier said than done, but history shows that Spurs do have a decent chance of getting something in this match.
