Match Preview

Tottenham have got their season back on track following a punishing run of form. They could come into this match on Thursday sitting inside the Champions League places, and if results go their way, they could put pressure on the sides at the top of the standings. Tottenham come into the festive period in fine form after winning each of their last two.

The same can’t be said of Brighton, who have hit a lull in their campaign after winning just once in their last five. The Seagulls played out a 1-1 draw against local rivals Crystal Palace in their previous match, which means that they are now without a clean sheet in their last 22 league fixtures. That is currently a club-record sequence in the top-flight.

However, Brighton have shown excellent character throughout the season, and that is highlighted by the fact that they have picked up 13 points from losing positions in 2023-24. Only Liverpool have picked up more points after falling behind in matches this season.

Brighton don’t have the best record in this fixture, as they have landed just three wins from their last 14 meetings with Tottenham. Over that period, the Seagulls have averaged only 0.8 goals per game. Spurs have also dominated the previous encounters between the sides, winning each of the last two, and three of the last four.

Brighton vs Tottenham Prediction

Brighton’s poor run of form showed no signs of stopping against Palace last week, and we struggle to see them keeping out this attack-minded Spurs side on Thursday. Therefore, the preference is for the away team to claim victory at the AMEX Stadium.
