The fourth round of the Carabao Cup between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City is officially set for an 8:15 p.m UK time kickoff on Oct. 30 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Drawing the Citizens in the fourth round draw a week ago, the stage has been set for Spurs to welcome the eight time EFL Cup winners to North London.

Last year, Manchester City finally lifted its curse at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium by scoring a goal and grabbing wins in the FA Cup and late in the Premier League campaign.

Now, the stage is set for Tottenham to go through the historic run that Manchester City have been on to get the quest to book a trip to Wembley and earn a trophy in the second year of Ange Postecoglou.

A quick recap of the third round draws for the two sides: Tottenham came back late against Championship side Coventry with goals from Djed Spence and a 94th minute winner from Brennan Johnson for a 2-1 winner. Manchester City matched the scoreline with goals from Jeremy Doku and Matheus Nunes in the first half to comfortably close the game out.

Pep Guardiola said he plans to rotate the squad for the 4th round contest by playing a lot of second team squad. Who knows if this is all mind games by the games best manager, but Spurs will be ready as the side have found their form in the last eight days.
