Tottenham are set to face Sydney in their third pre‑season match of the summer, having already beaten MK Dons and Auckland FC – and here’s how to watch their clash with the A‑League side.
Tottenham Hotspur’s tour of New Zealand and Australia kicked off on a good note, with Spurs beating A‑League champions Auckland FC 2-0.
It was an encounter that saw Roberto De Zerbi turn to his youth following a long trip to Oceania, and they certainly delivered.
The Spurs boss will now be hoping for more of the same as Tottenham face Sydney in what is their third pre-season match of the summer.

Spurs team news vs Sydney
After giving several of his first-team regulars a rest against Auckland FC, De Zerbi could reintroduce them on Wednesday morning.
Still, injuries remain within the Tottenham ranks, with Wilson Odobert, Mohammed Kudus, Xavi Simons and Dejan Kulusevski all out injured.
James Maddison and Destiny Udogie’s fitness continues to be managed, as revealed by De Zerbi after the Auckland encounter.
Meanwhile, the likes of Rodrigo Bentancur, Pape Matar Sarr, Guglielmo Vicario, Djed Spence, Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero and Marcos Senesi – all of whom were not included in the 35‑man squad – remain unavailable. Vicario is reported to have picked up a minor injury.
Sydney, on the other hand, will be without Paul Okon‑Engstler following his move to FC Cologne. While AFC Champions League winner Takahiro Sekine, who made his Sydney FC debut off the bench in the Australia Cup win over Bayswater City, could be set for his first start.
Spurs vs Sydney prediction
With the Premier League now less than a week from kicking off, we do expect to begin to see more of the first-team regulars feature in what has been a busy pre-season schedule.
Getting up to speed and avoiding injuries is something the Tottenham boss appears keen on, as Spurs need to start the new season strongly.
However, should De Zerbi field a stronger side on Wednesday, Spurs could secure a big win against Sydney.
Score prediction: Sydney 0-3 Tottenham.
