Tottenham head coach Verzecoglou praised Manchester City before her meeting on Wednesday evening.
The head of the Spurs has already overcome the Premier League master twice this season, once in the league cup and in November in Etihad.
But the Australian is aware that Pep Guardiola’s side of Pep Guardiola is playing, especially if they have to do about it.
During his press conference before the game, Postecoglou said: “Yes, look, it is always a challenge when you play City and she challenges you in a way how other clubs are not about her football.
“I know that you are going through a hard trot, but your football is still a real challenge against which you can play, but it’s a big challenge. It is what you want and you want to measure yourself.
“You will come and play here, play, dominant on the ball and we want to be dominant, but you know that you cannot be against Man City, and it is impossible to be dominant in all facets.
“They are always looking forward to the challenge. Man City is an excellent football club, a great manager, still has great footballers and still plays a really challenging football for every opponent.
“We enjoyed our games against them, whether this was this or last year. You will try to win, you will try to play an expansive playing and we will try to do the same. It will be a good test for us. “

A victory would be in the Premier League for Spurs four times in a row, its best form throughout the season.
In the past few weeks and up to the twelfth, albeit far from the European towns, they have withdrawn from the lower six and up to the 12th century.
But another victory against City could increase the mood even more, especially with people like Micky van de Ven, Cristiano Romero and Dominic Solanke, who return from an injury next week.
He added: “Everyone releases that we also lost two Cup games there, so that there are not exactly three in a row. We understand that there was also a disappointment there.
“I think the last few games in particular have encouraged us to only energize the group again. Whether the guys who were really challenged during this time when we were really challenged or the boys came back.
“There is only a really good energy. The boys who missed it were very interested in making a contribution, and they saw the enthusiasm that Vicario, Brennan came back at the weekend, Maddison, Destiny, these boys bought.
“It helped the rest of the group. I think we benefited from it with the two weeks that we had no games during the week. So all of these things and then you get two victories, which means that people feel good and build on us. “
