AVL vs TOT DREAM11 Match Preview:
Mauricio Pochettino’s side who missed out on European glory last time around take on the Champions of the 1982 European cup Aston Villa to Kick-off their Premier League campaign.
Tottenham finished a respectable fourth last season considering the fact that they made no new signings and some of their key players were injured at critical junctures of the season.
Aston Villa meanwhile return to the top-tier after a three year sabbatical with Dean Smith’s side beating Derby County in the Championship Play-off at Wembley.

The Spurs have signed Tanguy Ndombele, Ryan Sessegnon, Jack Clarke, and Giovani Lo Celso in the summer after manager Pochettino questioned the club’s lack of transfer activity last summer.
Harry Kane is fit and running and will inevitably lead the line against Villa.
This should be the competitive debut for record-signing Tanguy Ndombele who will partner Harry Winks in the midfield.
Son Heung Min is serving a suspension for the red card he earned against Bournemouth last season and Lucas Moura should fill in for him.
Eric Dier, Serge Aurier and Victor Wanyama will all undergo a late fitness before the game.
Christian Eriksen’s involvement in the game remains at large just like his future at the club.
Giovani Lo Celso joined Spurs on the deadline day, but he could start off the bench given his extended international duty in the summer.
Injuries: Dele Alli, Juan Foyth, Ben Davies
Suspension: Son Heung Min
Doubtful: Giovani Lo Celso
TOT Playing 11 (Probables): Lloris; Walker-Peters, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Ndombele, Winks; Moura, Eriksen, Lamela; Kane
The long list of incoming players at Villa Park are as follows:
Tom Heaton – Burnley, £8m
Marvelous Nakamba – Club Brugge, £11m
Douglas Luiz – Man City, £15m
Trezeguet – Kasimpasa, £8.5m
Matt Targett – Southampton, £11m
Jota – Birmingham City, undisclosed
Anwar El Ghazi – Lille, undisclosed
Wesley – Club Brugge, £22m
Ezri Konsa – Brentford, £12m
Kortney Hause – Wolves, undisclosed
Tyrone Mings – Bournemouth, £20m
Bjorn Engels – Stade Reims, undisclosed
Douglas Luiz joined the squad only midweek even after signing the contract a few weeks ago due to work-permit issues.
Ezri Konsa also limbered off in the friendly against RB Leipzig and his contention is also a doubt.
Captain and Talisman Jack Grealish will have to be the creator-in-chief to supply striker Weasley.
Injuries: None, Suspensions: None, Doubtful: Anwar El GhazI, Jed Steer, Ezri Konsa Ngoyo
AVL Playing 11 (Probables): Heaton; Guilbert, Engels, Mings, Targett; Hourihane, McGinn; Grealish, El Ghazi, Jota; Wesley.
