Manchester City Reach Carabao Final, But History Favors Tottenham
After struggling at the start of the 2020/21 season, Manchester City are starting to find their form.
At the start of December 2020, Manchester City won their UEFA Champions League group, and they progressed to the competition’s Round of 16. The Sky Blues have also gone on an undefeated run since December 1, where they have won seven of these 10 games and they drew the remaining three. They have also kept a clean sheet in seven of these 10 matches, and they only conceded three goals in this process. This impressive record has come against the likes of Man United (twice), Arsenal, and Chelsea.
