Spurs begin their Premier League campaign with a home game against Southampton this weekend and everyone is eager to see what Antonio Conte’s new-look side will have to offer.
Tottenham have been one of the busiest teams in Europe during the summer as they have made some superb signings in almost every department of their squad. Now, they will put their new team to test when the Saints come to town on Saturday night.
Spurs go into their season opener having won six out of their previous seven home games in the league while Southampton did not have a particularly good pre-season, winning just one out of the five games which they played.
Hasenhuttl’s side have won just three out of their last 20 away games against Tottenham and the way Spurs played in pre-season, we are expecting another easy win for the Lilywhites.

Team news:
Spurs will be without summer signing Richarlison who is suspended for this tie but almost everyone else will be available on Saturday.
Midfielders Yves Bissouma and Oliver Skipp are recovering from minor knocks but they should be fit in time.
Antonio Conte, to date, has made half a dozen signings at Spurs but we don’t expect each and everyone to get starting roles.
On the other hand, Livramento and Theo Walcott are ruled out for the Saints while Nathan Tella is out with a knee injury and he too won’t be fit in time for the trip to London.
