Tottenham Hotspur are determined to kick off their new Premier League campaign on a high note as they travel to face newly-promoted Leicester City at King Power Stadium on Monday.
Leicester City vs Tottenham Betting Tips: TOTTENHAM TO WIN
While the mission at King Power won't be straightforward for Spurs, they should manage to bag all three points against a returning Leicester team that will undoubtedly take some time to adapt to the top-flight demands.
If tradition holds true, this could be an enthralling contest with goals flowing freely, as their last five encounters have yielded an impressive tally of 27 goals, with Spurs emerging victorious in four of those.
The Foxes had a rough end to their preseason, suffering defeats and not scoring a single goal in three straight friendlies, indicating that they enter their Premier League comeback with little momentum, and staying in the top flight will be their primary worry.
What unsettles Leicester supporters is the summer departure of Enzo Maresca, the mastermind behind their immediate promotion back to the top flight, along with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, the midfielder who was an indispensable part of their championship-winning side in the second tier with an impressive record of 12 goals and 14 assists.
After missing out on a top-four finish last season due to a dreadful end that saw them take a measly six points from 21 on offer from the final seven rounds, Tottenham are determined to redeem themselves by bringing back UCL football, and strengthening the forward line with the arrival of Dominic Solanke bodes well for a fruitful campaign on all fronts.
With the loss of two key figures who were instrumental in last season's Championship triumph, Leicester seems weakened, making it difficult for them to withstand the relentless pressure of a highly motivated Tottenham throughout the entire match. Therefore, we remain confident that Postecoglou’s men will immediately assert their high ambitions by breaking down the Foxes' defensive wall multiple times and kicking off their domestic campaign in style.

Leicester City team news
With both manager Enzo Maresca and midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall joining Chelsea this summer, Leicester City appointed Steve Cooper as their new head coach, the man who kept Nottingham Forest from relegation last season.
With doubts surrounding the availability of key experienced Conor Coady and Jamie Vardy, the Foxes will also be without Zambian striker Patson Daka for several months following ankle surgery, leaving Tom Cannon to lead the line.

Tottenham team news
Tottenham will be without Fraser Forster and Richarlison for their Premier League opener, but manager Ange Postecoglou has strong alternatives in Guglielmo Vicario and summer signing Dominic Solanke, who is expected to make his debut from the start.
Yves Bissouma has been handed a one-match suspension by his club for personal reasons, opening the door for talented 18-year-old Lucas Bergvall to make his competitive debut from the bench for Spurs.
