Ryan Sessegnon will take part in a very different London derby tonight.
The Tottenham defender is set to face off with West Ham United midfielder Michail Antonio in what has been dubbed “The FIFA London Derby”.

The rivals will go head-to-head in a game of FIFA 20 in lieu of the real Premier League London derby between Spurs and West Ham, which has been postponed due to the ongoing coronavirus crisis.
Instead of tuning in to Sky Sports to watch the real teams clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Spurs and West Ham fans can see Sessegnon take on Antonio on the games streaming website Twitch – you can find the correct channel by clicking here.
Sessegnon has confirmed management agency USM Football will donate £1000 to the winner’s charity of choice. The former Fulham starlet has chosen Mind.
Also a massive thanks to @USM_Football who are giving £1000 to the winner to donate to their chosen charity ?? Mine is @MindCharity ?? #FIFALondonDerby
