An Arsenal fan claimed they cancelled one of the Manchester City team’s hotel reservations ahead of their Premier League clash with Tottenham.

Tottenham take on City on Tuesday, knowing that a draw or victory would put Arsenal in pole position to claim their first Premier League title in two decades with just one game remaining.

Mikel Arteta’s side are currently holding a one-point lead at the summit over reigning champions City, but have played a game more than City, who will reclaim the top spot with a victory over Spurs.

Arsenal fans are praying that City stumble against their north London rivals, and are doing all in their power to disrupt Pep Guardiola’s side ahead of the game.

Indeed, a contingent of Arsenal ultras donning ‘Ashburton Army' hoodies and balaclavas filmed themselves letting off fireworks at 2am on Tuesday outside Delta Hotels Waltham Abbey in Essex, where they believed the City side was staying.

Meanwhile, an Arsenal fan on X shared a video in which he appeared to be cancelling the hotel reservation of City goalkeeping coach Richard Wright. You can view it below.

However, the Arsenal fans’ attempts to disrupt City’s preparation ahead of the game appear to have been in vain, with it having since been revealed that Guardiola’s men had not yet departed Manchester.


SPORTbible has contacted Delta Hotels Waltham Abbey to enquire whether any bookings had been affected by Arsenal fan's antics.

Ahead of Tuesday’s game Tottenham boss Postecoglou made his views clear on the prospect of Tottenham fans wanting City to win the game.

"I understand rivalry. I was part of one of the biggest ones in the world in the last couple of years with Celtic and Rangers," the Spurs boss said.

"But I've never, and will never, understand if someone wants their own team to lose. That's not what sport is about. It's not what I love about the game."

He added that "100 per cent of Spurs supporters" want his side to beat City, though acknowledged that "people are allowed to feel the way they do".
