Comments:

Following the departure of Ange Postecoglou, this was new manager Thomas Frank's first game in charge in the Premier League for Tottenham Hotspur. . Spurs had now opened a Premier League season at home against a newly-promoted team for the third time; previously 3-1 victories against Ipswich Town in 2000-01 and Aston Villa in 2019-20. . They had now avoided losing four consecutive home games in the Premier League for the first time since November 2004 (four).

Comments:

Burnley started a season in the Premier League in London for the second time; previously a 3-2 win at reigning champions Chelsea in 2017. . The Clarets had now lost their opening game in each of their last four seasons in the Premier League. Their last win was a 3-0 home win over Southampton in 2019. . This result ended their club record unbeaten run of 33 league games, since a 1-0 away defeat at Millwall in November 2024 in the League Championship. The longest such run amongst the current Premier League teams.
