Tottenham is back in action for the 2025-26 Premier League season, with their first match kicking off this week.

Spurs take on Burnley on Saturday, Aug. 16, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in north London, with kickoff set for 3 p.m. BST. That makes it a 10 a.m. ET or 7 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 12 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia.

Mohammed Kudus makes his first Premier League appearance for Tottenham from the start. Fellow new boys Joao Palhinha and Luka Vuskovic are on the bench. Richarlison gets the nod instead of Dominic Solanke up front. Tottenham XI: Vicario, Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Spence, Gray, Bergvall, Kudus, Sarr, Johnson, Richarlison.

Richarlison has scored nine goals in his past nine starts for Tottenham, suggesting his has the potential to be a consistent threat

Richarlison demonstrated how crucial he is to Tottenham Hotspur with a sublime brace in their 3-0 Premier League win over Burnley, with manager Thomas Frank saying it was vital to manage the Brazilian smartly to continue getting the best out of him.

The Thomas Frank era began to the great delight of Tottenham Hotspur fans on Saturday, as last season's Europa League winners cruised past newly promoted Burnley 3-0 in north London.
