On August 10, 2024, a friendly match between Tottenham and Bayern will take place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, the prediction for which was made below.
Tottenham
Tottenham are preparing for their second season under Ange Postecoglou. The first year clearly saw the coach reorganise his staff and build a new team, so the fifth place finish in the league table can even be considered a success, but now the Londoners are obliged to do even better. The pre-season debut gave a glimpse of their readiness to take on big challenges. In their first four friendlies they beat Hearts 5:1, QPR 2:0, Kobe 3:2 and K-League Stars 4:3. It was only afterwards that they made their first mistake, when they failed to beat Bayern 1:2. Spurs have just one game left before the start of the new season.
Bayern
Bayern have changed coaches several times in recent years, and they have done so even in championship seasons, as the Munich team has won the national championship 11 times in a row. Thomas Tuchel came close to breaking this streak last year, but then Borussia was embarrassed in the last round, which allowed the Reds to celebrate the championship again. At the second attempt, the mentor still left the “eagles” without a title, and they managed to finish in third place in the standings. Of course, after this, Thomas Tuchel was fired and Vincent Kompany became the new helmsman. In the summer, Bayern played several test matches, among which the victories over Rottach-Egern and Tottenham by 14:1 and 2:1 respectively stood out.

Betting and predictions
Tottenham and Bayern met a week earlier, when the Munich team won 2-1 in Seoul. Now the teams have moved to London, where Ange Postecoglou’s charges should have a better chance of achieving a positive result. Spurs played well at their stadium last season: they won 10 of the last 14 home games, lost to Arsenal and twice to Man City, i.e. participants in the championship race. The Munich team in its current form is noticeably inferior to these teams and therefore the owners must offer them a worthy resistance. You can bet that Tottenham will not lose with odds of around 1.84.
The Tottenham-Bayern clash has been encouraging lately with high results. In the four previous clashes, the opponents scored 20 goals against each other (5.00 on average per game), an impressive offensive productivity. During the pre-season preparation, the Londoners have already played five control matches, in which they scored and conceded a total of 23 goals (4.60 on average per game), while the Munich team strives to dominate the field and score a lot in every battle. Based on this, the optimal option for prediction seems to be a total of over 3.5 goals with a rate of around 1.83, and it is also worth betting on a Tottenham individual total of over 1.5 goals with a rate of 1.79.
Our prediction: Tottenham will not lose with odds of 1.84 according to the 888Sports bookmaker.
