THE LOWDOWN
TOTTENHAM
- Tottenham successfully secured Champions League football on the final day of last season and look well-placed to build upon that success this season, starting here at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
- Spurs fans will have to wait to see new signing Richarlison in action for them due to suspension and another new player in Yves Bissouma faces a late fitness test to determine his involvement in this one.
SOUTHAMPTON
- Southampton go into the opening weekend looking to end a losing run of three consecutive defeats in their opening Premier League fixture of the season under the command of Ralph Hasenhuttl.
- A decision will have to be made on whether Alex McCarthy or new signing Gavin Bazunu starts in goal, whilst the Saints are also expected to play with a back three as they have throughout pre-season.

THE PREDICTION
There is plenty of optimism around Tottenham heading into the new campaign with a full pre-season under Antonio Conte and the former Premier League winning manager with Chelsea is expected to take this team to a different level. New signings have been made, but most importantly the key duo of Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son remain which doesn’t bode well for Southampton. The Saints have conceded seven goals across their last three opening round games in the Premier League and Tottenham will be confident of inflicting further misery upon them. Back Spurs to triumph by at least two clear goals.
TIP: TOTTENHAM TO WIN WITH -1 HANDICAP
