“We know that Tottenham is a very good team. Our first game and second game with them was not easy. I hope they will be at their best on Tuesday.”

There have been some suggestions that Tottenham fans would prefer to lose to City on Tuesday in order to stunt Arsenal’s title charge. Saliba though, is confident that Spurs’ players will be able to put this to one side.

Provided that Aston Villa drop points against Liverpool on Monday night, there is still an outside chance that Tottenham could qualify for the Champions League next season. Saliba feels this motivation could be crucial on Tuesday.

“No, I don’t think so,” he said when asked if Spurs might be tempted to take the game lightly. “Because they want to play in the Champions League next season I think they will try to win. I know their fans don’t want them to win against City, but they are good competitors so I think they will try their best to win against City.”
