Tottenham vs West Ham: Friendly prediction, kick-off time, TV, live ...

Tottenham and West Ham go head-to-head in Australia this morning in the first match-up of Premier League sides this summer.

Perth hosts the London rivals, who are both hoping for better league campaigns in 2023-24.

Ange Postecoglou takes charge of his first official fixture for Spurs in his home country and fans will be intrigued to see how he lines up his side.

New goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, England international James Maddison and free signing Manor Solomon could all make their Tottenham debuts, along with defender Destiny Udogie who signed last summer.

West Ham are yet to make a new signing having recently sold Declan Rice but have bagged back-to-back wins over Perth Glory and Boreham Wood in their summer friendlies so far.
