Goal Scorer:
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham will be without the services of new signing Richarlison on Saturday due to a suspension, while Oliver Skipp is definitely out of the contest due to a foot fracture.
New signing Bissouma is also a doubt, with Conte insisting during his press conference that he would not take any risks when it comes to the midfielder, who still has a chance of being in the squad.
Conte has decisions to make in a number of areas, but the team is likely to be similar to the one that ended last season, with Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski playing as a front three.
Ryan Sessegnon could get the nod on the left, with Perisic not yet fully fit, while Ben Davies is fit to start at the back despite concerns over his availability.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Doherty, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Sessegnon; Kulusevski, Kane, Son
Southampton
As for Southampton, head coach Hasenhuttl confirmed during his pre-match press conference that Nathan Tella and Theo Walcott would be absent for the clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Tino Livramento is also a long-term absentee, meaning that the Saints will be missing three players on Saturday.
Che Adams could lead the attack despite the recent speculation surrounding his future, with new signing Mara potentially starting on the bench.
Bazunu could be given the nod between the sticks, though, while there might be another debutant in the shape of Aribo, who has arrived from Rangers this summer.
Southampton possible starting lineup:
Bazunu; Walker-Peters, Salisu, Bednarek, Perraud; S Armstrong, Ward-Prowse, Romeu, Elyounoussi; Aribo; Adams
Prediction: Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 Southampton
