Overview of the match for Bayern Munich against Tottenham
Tottenham will conclude his pre-season campaign with a difficult confrontation against the German champions of Bayern Munich Thursday at the Allianz Arena.
While spurs have been active in pre-season for several weeks, Bayern only returned to action during the weekend, after recently participated in the club World Cup.
Their summer holidays were extended due to the start of the German league, and they enter this match in the back of a 2-1 victory against Lyon.
Tottenham, under the new head coach Thomas Frank, will use this game as a final development before their super cup confrontation with PSG and the opening of the Premier League against Burnley.
Despite a 2-1 victory over Arsenal in Hong Kong, the Spurs only recorded a victory in their last four warm-up games.
The match also has a little story, while Bayern beat the 7-2 Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium in the 2019 Champions League.
While Bayern also won the two meetings between the parties last summer, this team of Spurs will be very different under a new leadership and without the longtime captain Heung-Min, who left for Lafc.
