(Reuters) - Something was always likely to give when the Premier League's two unbeaten sides met at White Hart Lane and Tottenham Hotspur swept aside Manchester City 2-0 to inflict Pep Guardiola's first defeat as the visitors' manager. The win moved second-placed Tottenham one point behind City at the top. Elsewhere, sixth-placed Manchester United also slipped up as they drew 1-1 with Stoke City, while Leicester and Southampton shared a goalless draw. By contrast, City struggled without their own missing man, Kevin De Bruyne, who had inspired their scintillating start to the season. Leicester City drew 0-0 at home to Southampton, who have now gone six games without conceding a goal.
