Tottenham and Bayern Munich Clash in Visit Malta Cup
Tottenham Hotspur is gearing up for an exciting clash against FC Bayern Munich as they meet in the Visit Malta Cup today at 5:30 PM UK time. Manager Ange Postecoglou has made a change to his starting squad, bringing in Yves Bissouma to replace Archie Gray, who will start on the bench.
In good news for Spurs fans, several key players are making their return to the squad. Destiny Udogie, Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, and Rodrigo Bentancur are all back and will be available to join the team from the sidelines today.
The starting XI for Tottenham includes Vicario in goal, with Pedro Porro, Dragusin, Davies, and Spence forming the defense. The midfield features Sarr, Bissouma, and Maddison, while Kulusevski, Son, and Johnson lead the attack.
On the other side, FC Bayern’s lineup shows Neuer as their captain, supported by Upamecano, Stanisic, Kim, and Guerreiro in the back. Their midfield consists of Kimmich and Pavlovic, with key forwards like Gnabry, Muller, Musiala, and Tel looking to make their mark.
Harry Kane and Eric Dier, both former Spurs stars, are on Bayern’s substitutes list, adding a bit of nostalgia to this thrilling matchup. This face-off is especially significant for Spurs, as they seek revenge after being defeated by Bayern in a previous encounter.
As the match gets underway, it promises to be an emotional day—especially with tributes planned for Kane and Dier before the kick-off. Postecoglou will be hoping to see his team perform strongly as they prepare for the upcoming Premier League season.
