The game will take place on July 31st and will follow a game between Liverpool and AC Milan played on the 26th as part of the Hong Kong Football Festival.

Both sides have already faced each other twice this season with the Gunners emerging victorious on both occasions, winning 1-0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before triumphing 2-1 at home.

Indeed, Spurs haven't gotten the better of their rivals in their last six encounters with the most recent victory coming back in May 2022.
