Tottenham will be eyeing their second pre-season friendly win when they face Rangers at the Ibrox Stadium in Glagow on Saturday.
Antonio Conte has brought in six new summer signings in the transfer window including Brazil and former Everton forward Richarlison, as the former Inter and Chelsea boss looks to transform Spurs into title contenders in the Premier League.
Getty ImagesTottenham began their preparations in South Korea with a 6-3 victory against K-League XI. In their second game, they were held 1-1 by Sevilla.
Results in pre-season are nothing to boast about but Rangers won both their friendlies in July. They beat Blackpool 2-1, overcame Premier League side West Ham's challenge 3-1 and now seek a victory against Tottenham to conclude pre-season with their unbeaten run intact.
