United's lead has been cut to five points following their 1-1 draw with Spurs, and the Bosnian has urged his team-mates to maintain the pressure on the leaders as they look to defend their league title.
City's 2-0 victory at home to Fulham on Saturday meant that the Red Devils needed a win to maintain their seven point advantage over their cross-town rivals, but Clint Dempsey's equaliser deep into injury-time meant United had to settle for a point.
"We have to just keep doing what we're doing," he told the club's official website. "I think Manchester United will drop points sooner or later but we just need to keep winning and keep the pressure on them."
Despite Dzeko's failure to add to his 10 league goals, the 26-year-old lauded David Silva's two-goal contribution in the victory.
"David took his goals really well and he is disappointed he didn't maybe get a third, but I'm really pleased for him and that the team won," Dzeko added.
"We are a bit disappointed we didn't score more goals after taking the lead so early in the game and I think if we'd scored again in the first half we'd have gone on and won by more but sometimes it doesn't pan out like that. We got the second at a good time so we have to be happy.
"I'm disappointed I didn't score, but I think I played okay. As long as we keep winning, I'm happy."
