Brentford vs Tottenham LIVE: Premier League latest score, match stream, goal updates and fan reaction

GettyA London derby is the headline act on the opening Saturday of the new Premier League season as Tottenham make the short trip from north to west to face Brentford. Despite successive 17th-place finishes and only escaping relegation on the final day in May, expectations are high at Spurs as their big-spending summer transfer window continues, with £100m signing Sandro Tonali expected to headline a flurry of competitive debuts. However, familiar issues persist as Roberto De Zerbi begins his first full campaign in charge, with a number of key players absent today.That number includes injured new captain Micky van de Ven and World Cup winner Pedro Porro, while Savinho has not signed in time to feature as Spurs also push to land Manchester City team-mate Omar Marmoush. Brentford should provide a stern first test for Tottenham’s new era, having impressed under Keith Andrews last term and only missed out on last-gasp European qualification on goal difference.The Bees will hand a top-flight debut to club-record signing Mamadou Sangare, whom they hope will provide the perfect counter to Spurs’ new-look midfield.
