Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to pick up from where they left off when they return to action this weekend. The Lilywhites have won each of their first two games of the new Premier League campaign, storming past Burnley at home before pulling a rabbit out of the hat at the Etihad Stadium to win 2-0 a week ago.
Thomas Frank's side are also yet to concede a goal, despite having one of the worst defensive records among the teams who avoided relegation from the English top-flight last term. Tottenham may have a skip in their step, but Bournemouth are no pushovers.
The Cherries have showed great promise in the early weeks of the season, with Antoine Semenyo enjoying a great vein of form. The winger already has two goals and an assist under his belt, thriving in a talismanic role.
When Spurs take on Andoni Iraola's side this weekend, they'll have to be at their very best. So, with that being said, football.london has rounded up everything you need to know about the clash.
