Mauricio Pochettino expects "tough game" against Celtic

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino believes that his side will face a "tough match" in their pre-season friendly against Celtic.

Mauricio Pochettino has said that he is expecting a "tough game" when Tottenham Hotspur face Celtic in a pre-season friendly this afternoon.

Spurs have Emmanuel Adebayor, Sandro and Nabil Bentaleb back in their squad for their meeting with the Scottish champions in Helsinki later.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, the Tottenham manager said: "It's a tough game and we expect to develop our style and philosophy. We expect a good game. Celtic are a very good team.

"It's a different game because it's away for both teams, but we expect a lot of supporters from Europe and we have here a supporters club so it's important to play well in front of our fans.

"We are looking to continue to develop and it's important that players like Emmanuel Adebayor, Sandro and Nabil Bentaleb are here with us, while the remaining World Cup players have also returned to training."

Celtic head into the match just three days after losing 4-1 in a Champions League qualifier to Legia Warsaw.
