    Watch a preview of the Sunday's Premier League action including Tottenham against Manchester City and Arsenal's trip to Burnley.

    Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino could have four first-team players back for Sunday's crunch match against Manchester City, live on Sky Sports 2 HD.

    Eric Dier, Moussa Dembele and Danny Rose will all be assessed as they near returns from hamstring injuries while Moussa Sissoko may also feature after taking a bang on the head last weekend.

    Pochettino's first ever win as a manager came when Espanyol beat Pep Guardiola's Barcelona at the Nou Camp in 2009, and the Argentinian will hope to inflict a first defeat on the Spaniard's City this season.

    Guardiola's reign in Manchester began with 10 straight wins, a run which was halted by a 3-3 draw with Celtic in the Champions League on Wednesday.

    City's 100 per cent start in the league sees them four points clear of second-placed Spurs ahead of the showdown on Nissan Super Sunday.

    The club are still assessing the extent of the injuries afflicting Kevin De Bruyne, Vincent Kompany and Fabian Delph in order to determine how long they will remain on the sidelines.

    The Belgians are receiving treatment for hamstring and groin problems respectively, but it is hoped Delph's muscle injury will clear up by the end of the international break. Nolito will be suspended, following his red card at Bournemouth.

    Opta stats

    Spurs have won 22 of their 38 Premier League games against City; should they win this game, they will have beaten them more often than they've defeated any other side (currently tied with 22 wins v Everton).

    There have been 22 goals scored in the last five Premier League meetings between these sides at White Hart Lane (9 for Spurs, 13 for Man City).

    Sergio Aguero has scored 28 goals in his last 27 Premier League appearances for City.

    Guardiola needs a win from this game to break the record for best winning starts to a managerial career in the Premier League (currently tied with Carlo Ancelotti on six).

    This game pitches together the only two unbeaten teams left in the Premier League this season.

    Four of Heung-Min Son's eight Premier League goals have come in his last 229 minutes of action for Spurs.

    Aguero's mins-per-goal rate of one every 106 minutes is the best rate in Premier League history, 15 minutes quicker than Thierry Henry in second place.

    Aguero now has as many Premier League goals as Paul Scholes (107), but in 345 fewer games.

    Merson's prediction

    Which City will turn up? My worry with the manager was how he would cope over here. In Spain and Germany the big sides turn up for games and half the time they wipe the floor with the opposition.

    But what was John Stones doing on the bench against Celtic? Aleksandar Kolarov was at centre-half and then the ball comes in, he misses it like an eight-year-old and they concede a third.

    I thought Swansea were unlucky last week in the first half against City and they will miss Kevin De Bruyne.

    I think Spurs will get a result. They are a good team and are also unbeaten. They haven't played great but they have had some tricky games so you have to give them credit.
