Because the match is airing in the U.S. on NBC, you don't actually need a cable subscription to watch Man City vs. Tottenham. An HDTV antenna can help you pick up NBC's broadcast.
But that approach only works if you're near a TV set. If you prefer to watch the Man City vs. Tottenham live stream, you're going to need to subscribe to a streaming service. (This can also help with watching other Premier League matches this season, as the bulk of NBC's coverage will appear on the NBC Sports Channel.) Just be sure that the service you pick includes your local NBC affiliate: not every streaming service offers every local channel, and in the case of Sling TV, local network affiliates are only available in select markets.

What should I watch for in the Man City vs. Tottenham match?
Both teams are coming off wins in their opening match. Man City took care of West Ham United 5-0, while Spurs had to work a little bit harder in their 3-1 victory over Aston Villa.
Last season, Man City swept both matches with Tottenham by identical 1-0 scorelines. Those are relatively low-scoring games considering the firepower on both squads. Sergio Aguero, Kevin de Bruyne and Gabriel Jesus lead the Man City attack while Harry Kane has been a goal machine for Spurs.
Tottenham fans can take heart in last year's Champions League quarterfinals, in which Spurs eliminated Man City on away goals after finishing in a 4-4 draw over two legs.
