Tottenham Hotspur will be without the services of new signing Richarlison for Saturday's Premier League opener with Southampton due to a one-match suspension.

Spurs will also be missing midfielder Oliver Skipp due to a fractured foot, while summer arrival Yves Bissouma faces a battle to be included in the squad.

Head coach Antonio Conte said during Thursday's pre-match press conference that a final decision on Bissouma would be made following Friday's training session.

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 despite a number of new players arriving in the current market.

Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski are set to feature as the front three, while Ryan Sessegnon might get the nod as the left-sided wing-back, with Ivan Perisic yet to prove his fitness.

There had been concerns over the availability of Ben Davies, but the Wales international has been passed fit and is expected to feature alongside Eric Dier and Cristian Romero at the back.

Djed Spence, Fraser Forster and Clement Lenglet are also new signings at Tottenham this summer, and the trio will be bidding to make the squad on the opening weekend of the 2022-23 Premier League campaign.

Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup: Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Doherty, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Sessegnon; Kulusevski, Kane, Son body check tags ::
