Spurs have signed six new players so far, but none of them start today. Instead, Ivan Perisic, Yves Bissouma, Clement Lenglet, Fraser Forster and Djed Spence are all on the bench. Richarlison, meanwhile, has to serve a one-game suspension. 

Southampton have focused their spending on younger players. Notably, they have brought in two of Manchester City’s u23 stars, goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu for £12.6 million and midfielder Romeo Lavia for more than £11 million, and both play today. 

Here's how they line up:

Tottenham: Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Royal, Sessegnon, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Kulusevski, Son, Kane.

Southampton: Bazunu, Walker-Peters, Bednarek, Salisu, Valery, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Lavia, Aribo, Djenepo, Armstrong.

The Saints won this fixture in impressive style last season. They tailed off badly though, getting just one point from their last six Premier League matches and ending in 15th place. James Ward-Prowse's crosses and set pieces are likely to be crucial in this game and beyond as they try to break into the top half of the table. 

Antonio Conte’s side ended last season by securing Champions League football and will want to get off to good start in front of a home crowd. Will the new recruits help them do it, or can Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men beat them once again? Find out by watching the Tottenham vs Southampton live stream.
