Auckland FC and Tottenham Hotspur are set to face off at Eden Park in a pre-season friendly on Sunday. This match marks Auckland's first outing since wrapping up their 2025-26 season, while Tottenham has already kicked off their pre-season with a 1-0 victory over MK Dons. Founded in March 2024, Auckland FC played their inaugural A-League match in October 2024, achieving a 2-0 win against Brisbane Roar. That initial success paved the way for Auckland's first season, where they topped the A-League standings with 53 points from 26 matches, boasting 15 wins, eight draws, and just three losses. However, Auckland fell short in the play-offs, losing 2-1 to Melbourne Victory in the semi-finals, preventing them from claiming the A-League Championship. In the following season, the Black Knights finished third in the league but managed to clinch the A-League Championship title in the play-offs, marking a significant achievement for Steve Corica's team. They triumphed over Melbourne City in a penalty shootout and defeated Adelaide United 4-1 in the semi-finals, before narrowly besting Sydney FC 1-0 in the final to lift the trophy. As they prepare for the 2026-27 season, Corica will be looking to start strong against Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur this Sunday.
