Mahrez: Manchester City’s home form huge disadvantage to Tottenham

Riyad Mahrez believes Manchester City’s form at the Etihad will help them progress to the semifinals of the Champions League ahead of Tottenham Hotspurs, who hold a first-leg advantage.

Heung-Min Son’s second-half effort condemned the Citizens - who missed the chance to take an early lead via Sergio Aguero - to a 1-0 defeat at Spurs’ new stadium.

Manchester City will hope to get the required result to move to the competition’s semis for the second time ever when Mauricio Pochettino’s side come visiting the Etihad next Wednesday.
