Tottenham will be hoping to continue their perfect start to the 2025/26 Premier League campaign under new head coach Thomas Frank as they prepare to welcome Bournemouth to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Indeed, Spurs, alongside last season's top two Liverpool and Arsenal, are the only teams to pick up maximum points from their opening two games so far.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth sealed their first win of the season in a 1-0 victory against Wolves at the Vitality Stadium last time out. Nonetheless, we are expecting a pulsating match-up with plenty of goals on offer when both sides collide.

Player to watch: Richarlison
Richarlison followed up a brace in Tottenham's 3-0 win at home to Burnley on the opening weekend of the new 2025/26 Premier League season with an assist in their 2-0 victory at Manchester City last time out. The Brazilian striker is doing well to keep Englishman Dominic Solanke out of the team.
