Sydney FC vs Tottenham Tips & Prediction


Tottenham are expected to back up their routine 2-0 win over Auckland FC this past weekend when they come up against Sydney FC at Allianz Stadium on Wednesday night in the Sydney Super Cup.

Spurs have a rich history in Australia - this is their seventh trip down under, while Ange Postecoglou led the club to their first piece of silverware since 2008 when they won the Europa League in 2025.

Despite that breakthrough, Postecoglou was deemed surplus to requirements at Tottenham and they proceeded to have a shocking season last term, barely escaping relegation as they finished 17th, just two points above the drop zone.

Roberto De Zerbi has since taken charge of the club and nothing less than a top-half finish will do for Tottenham, but they really need to be pushing for Europe. Spurs got their preseason campaign off to a winning start across the ditch last weekend, beating A-League champions Auckland FC 2-0 in front of over 40,000 fans at Eden Park.

Sydney meanwhile lost that A-League grand final to Auckland and returned to competitive action last week, easing past Bayswater 5-1 in the Australia Cup Round of 32, with young stars Thiago Quintal and Akol Akon playing starring roles.

Once again, only small stakes in these friendlies, but BTTS - No at plus money is the value play. Sydney have played two English Premier Leagues prior to this and they failed to score in both, while obviously Auckland didn't find the back of the net on Sunday.

So let's back only one team to score again, with Under 3.5 goals and another 2-0 Tottenham victory.
  • Tottenham have seen BTTS - No in their last three games in all comps
  • Tottenham have seen Under 3.5 goals in their last six games in all comps
  • Sydney have seen Under 3.5 goals in nine of their last 11 games in all comps
  • Sydney have lost both previous friendlies vs EPL teams without scoring & Under 3.5 goals

Sydney FC vs Tottenham Head To Head

These two clubs squared off in 2015 in the only previous meeting, with Harry Kane scoring the winner in a 1-0 win for Tottenham.

Sydney FC Form Analysis

Patrick Kisnorbo took charge of Sydney FC toward the end of last season following some sub-par results under Ufuk Talay.

Kisnorbo instilled some steeliness and improved defence into the Sky Blues, who knocked out minor premiers Newcastle Jets on their way to the A-League Grand Final, where they were upstaged 1-0 by Auckland.

Returning to competitive action last week, Sydney were untroubled in advancing into the Australia Cup R16, crushing Bayswater 5-1 in Western Australia.

Sydney FC Team News

Thiago Quintal bagged himself a brilliant hat-trick in that win over Bayswater, while 17-year-old prodigy Akol Akon registered three assists. Both should see some game time here.

Nineteen-year-old Mathias Macallister and 20-year-old Zac De Jesus were also on the scoresheet, with Sydney hoping their young squad can continue to impress ahead of the season.

Tottenham Form Analysis

It was a nightmare EPL season for Tottenham last term, with the club only managing 10 wins from their 38 games.

Safety was only confirmed with a couple of games remaining, with Spurs finishing in 17th spot, two points ahead of West Ham.

Tottenham also featured in the Champions League courtesy of their Europa League triumph under Postecoglou from the previous season, bowing out in the R16 against Atletico Madrid.

Spurs opened their preseason with a 1-0 win over MK Dons before upstaging Auckland 2-0 at Eden Park last weekend.

Tottenham Team News

Young striker Dane Scarlett was lively against Auckland, opening the scoring and registering seven total shots, while Brazilian star Richarlison doubled Spurs' advantage in the 2-0 win.

Ben Davies, Mateus Fernandes, Conor Gallagher and Mathys Tel all received some game time in that win.

Fans in Sydney will be hoping the likes of Sandro Tonali, James Maddison, Destiny Udogie, Andy Robertson, Jan Paul Van Hecke, Lucas Bergvall and Dominic Solanke get on the pitch on Wednesday night.
