Antonio Conte’s first full season in charge of Tottenham will get underway away from the glare of the live TV cameras, with their opening-day clash with Southampton being handed a traditional 3pm Saturday kick-off time.
Saints enjoyed a dramatic victory over Conte’s side in February, twice coming from behind to win 3-2 and home fans will be hoping for much less drama this time around against a Southampton outfit who ended the 2021/22 campaign with nine defeats in 12.
However, the clash is the only one of five Spurs’ games in August that hasn’t been earmarked for live coverage.
