Pep Guardiola’s side cantered into the fourth round after a 5-0 win against Huddersfield Town as City made it nine games unbeaten in all competitions.
Spurs, meanwhile, reached this stage in the competition after a hard-fought 1-0 win against Burnley and will look to keep alive faint hopes of winning cup silverware in Ange Postecoglou’s maiden season.
Tottenham, however, do have an enviable recent record against City having lost just one of their last five encounters against the reigning Premier League champions.

Spurs are still without Son Heung-Min, Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr who are away at the Africa Cup of Nations and Asian Cup respectively. Alejo Veliz, Giovani Lo Celso, Ben Davies and Manor Solomon remain long-term absentees but Postecoglou will hope to be able to call on the services of James Maddison for the first time since the Englishman injured his ankle in November.
City, meanwhile, will hope to have Erling Haaland available for selection after his spell on the sidelines with a foot injury. John Stones and Manuel Akanji could well return in central defence, while a late fitness call will also be made on Ederson after he picked up a knock in the game against Newcastle.
