Bayern to win and Both Teams To Score (2.30, Parimatch)
Bayern Munich have historically had the edge over Spurs, and they'll head into this upcoming pre-season showdown brimming with belief. The Bavarian heavyweights are tipped to come out on top once again, but don’t count Tottenham out just yet—we fancy their chances to at least find the back of the net in what could be a lively affair.

Bayern Munich to score 2 or 3 goals (1.96, Parimatch)
Bayern Munich will enjoy the comforts of home in this key pre-season clash as they fine-tune for the Bundesliga kickoff.
Their slick, free-flowing attack could pose serious problems for Spurs, especially with Thomas Frank’s men still finding their rhythm. Tottenham looked shaky at the back against Newcastle, who constantly rotated in the final third, and Bayern are even more lethal in that regard.
Up front, Spurs haven’t quite clicked either, managing just two goals across their last three outings. In contrast, Bayern hit the ground running with a solid two-goal performance against Lyon. Backing Bayern to score 2 or 3 goals feels like a strong call here.
