Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur

Amex Stadium sets the stage for a potentially high-scoring Premier League showdown between Brighton & Hove Albion and Tottenham Hotspur.

Brighton looked to be on their way to protect their unbeaten Premier League start under new manager Fabian Hurzeler last weekend after breaking the deadlock against Chelsea, only for Cole Palmer’s unprecedented first-half brace to condemn them to a 4-2 defeat at Stamford Bridge. The Seagulls have had a week to regroup and find their rhythm again after being knocked down from a five-game unbeaten league run (W2, D3). The impending return to East Sussex isn’t necessarily a boost for Brighton, considering they’ve failed to beat Nottingham Forest (2-2) and Ipswich Town (0-0) in their last two home league outings. On a more positive note, they dismantled Tottenham 4-2 in this corresponding fixture in 2023/24 to end a two-game losing H2H run on home turf.

Keen to settle the account, Tottenham head into proceedings in a buoyant mood after following a 3-0 demolition of Manchester United with a 2-1 Europa League win at Ferencvaros. Manager Ange Postecoglou rotated his squad for that trip to Hungary, securing fresh legs for this encounter as Spurs look to extend their five-match winning run in all competitions. Despite comprehensive squad rotations, Postecoglou can’t call upon his captain, Son Heung-min, for this fixture, diminishing his side’s chances of winning four consecutive away matches for the first time for the first time in 2024. However, neutrals may look forward to this encounter, considering 77% of Spurs’ Premier League games since the start of last season have featured over 2.5 goals.
