Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.

Maddison's opener after 36 seconds is the earliest goal Southampton have conceded in a Premier League game since Stoke goalkeeper Asmir Begovic scored after 13 seconds in November 2013, which was also the longest-range strike in the competition's history.

WIDE!! Tottenham pack the Southampton box with numbers from a Maddison free-kick which is headed clear, and after Son's shot from a Spence cross is blocked, it comes back to Maddison and he curls another effort wide from just inside the area!

Maddison and Sarr both feign to shoot on the edge of the box before the latter plays in Kulusevski to his right, and the Swede's own attempt from a tight angle is blocked behind by Manning for a corner.

SAVED!!! A first sight of goal for the Saints! Dibling clips an outside-of-the-boot cross into the area which is attacked by Armstrong, but his glancing header is sent straight into Forster's gloves!
