English Premier League heavyweights Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur will meet for the first time outside Britain next year when they face each other on a pre-season tour in Sydney, officials said yesterday.
The London rivals have signed on for the “Sydney Super Cup” with Chelsea also meeting A-League side Western Sydney Wanderers while Spurs play Sydney FC. They will then face each other on August 1 at the 83,000-capacity Olympic Stadium.
“I’ve heard all about our passionate fan base in Australia and it’s something the club is very proud of,” said Spurs manager Thomas Frank. “I can’t wait to experience that for myself.”
