Tottenham will arrive in west London with several selection decisions still to be made.
De Zerbi was handed some encouragement this week after Spurs received a triple injury boost before the Brentford game, although the head coach still has a number of fitness concerns to manage.
Brentford have also enjoyed an eye-catching end to pre-season. Keith Andrews’ side beat Eintracht Frankfurt 7-0 in their final friendly and will now begin their second campaign under the head coach.
For Spurs, Saturday represents the first competitive opportunity to see how De Zerbi’s reshaped squad handles Premier League opposition after a major summer of change.
Their attacking availability has been particularly important heading into the opening weekend, with our analysis of Tottenham’s concerning 39.6 per cent attacking statistic highlighting why further reinforcement remains on the agenda.
The Brentford fixture begins a league schedule that sees Tottenham host Newcastle United in their first home game one week later.
