Tottenham vs. Brighton preview
Tottenham will be desperate to bounce back from consecutive league losses when they welcome a high-flying Brighton side to North London on Sunday evening.
Spurs managed a morale-boosting 1-0 Europa League victory against Manchester United midweek, but fatigue could be a factor as Ange Postecoglou looks likely to rotate his squad.
The Seagulls arrive in confident mood after an impressive 3-2 triumph over newly-crowned champions Liverpool, continuing their free-scoring form that has seen them net 13 times in their last six matches.
Recent history between these sides promises goals, with their October clash ending in a thrilling 3-2 Brighton victory where Minteh, Rutter and Welbeck all found the net for the visitors.
Tottenham's defensive frailties—having conceded in five of their last six outings—could be exploited by Brighton's attacking prowess, though the hosts will take confidence from winning their last meeting in London.
With both teams committed to attack-minded football and Brighton likely to dominate possession, fans should expect another entertaining, high-scoring affair to close out the season.
