Tottenham host Hoffenheim in behind-closed-doors pre-season friendly at Hotspur Way

Tottenham Hotspur will host Hoffenheim in a behind-closed-doors pre-season friendly at Hotspur Way Training Centre in London on Sunday, August 16, with kick-off at 4:30 p.m. IST.

Tottenham battled during the 2025-26 season, and after helping the team narrowly avoid relegation, coach Roberto De Zerbi will now be looking to contend at the other end of the table this time around. The Lilywhites aim to finish their pre-season strongly; two friendlies in two days will test their endurance ahead of the Premier League opener against Brentford on August 22.

Christian Ilzer’s Hoffenheim were an unexpected candidate for European football in the Bundesliga last season, although they lost out on Champions League qualifying. Die Kraichgauer finished the 2025-26 top-flight campaign with a 4-0 defeat to Borussia Monchengladbach but began the summer with a run of five straight triumphs, including a 21-0 win over SV Massenbachhausen on July 22, and are seeking their sixth win in seven games this weekend.
