Brighton vs Tottenham Prediction: Spurs can leave Seagulls stranded

There's plenty of Premier League action to savour on Sunday with three games culminating in the south-coast clash of Brighton against Tottenham Hotspur at the Amex Stadium. Fabian Hurzeler made a rapid start to life in the Premier League but the 31-year-old novice has now gone four games without a win and saw his side concede four times in the space of 20 first-half minutes against Chelsea last weekend.

Ange Postecoglou is another manager who tends to see the goals flowing and so, on paper at least, this clash promises excitement at both ends. Read below for my Brighton vs Tottenham prediction, complete with all the latest team news and match odds.

Team News

Joel Veltman, Simon Adingra, James Milner and Brajan Gruda are all to be assessed for this assignment, while Solly March could come into contention for the first time this season.

The likes of Joao Pedro, Jan Paul van Hecke and summer signing Matt O'Riley will all be absent again.

Football Odds

Tottenham captain Son Heung-min is likely to be missing once more, but Postecoglou is confident Destiny Udogie will be back in the mix.

Teenager Mikey Moore impressed in the Europa League win over Ferencvaros and may hope to get a spot on the bench now with Wilson Odobert and Richarlison still out injured.

Tottenham are on a winning sequence of five games across all competitions and they are 23/20 favourites to keep that run going. Brighton are 9/5 to get a first Premier League win since late August, while the draw is 3/1.

Big-money summer signing Dominic Solanke has scored three in his last three starts and is 11/2 to break the deadlock here, while these attacking sides are 2/1 to produce over 4.5 goals, just as they did in Brighton's 4-2 win in this fixture last season.

Tottenham to win @ 23/20

The Spurs boss was a man under the microscope after the north London derby reverse against Arsenal last month and it could have got a bit tetchy for Postecoglou had his side not turned around their EFL Cup tie at Coventry a few days later.

They plucked that one from the fire with two late goals and have now won five on the bounce in all competitions – the most impressive of those wins coming via a 3-0 success at Old Trafford last Sunday.

Chelsea picked Brighton apart almost at will last weekend, the Blues looking like they could score every time they went forward.

Disappointing home draws with Ipswich and Nottingham Forest recently halted their progress under Hurzeler and with Spurs in the groove right now, the visiting side are fancied to win again.

Over 4.5 Goals @ 2/1

The goals are likely to flow in this one. As many as 10 of Tottenham's Premier League away games last season went over the 3.5 goal mark.

That same benchmark has been hit in two of Brighton's six games so far this season in the league, while last month's win over Wolves in the League Cup here featured five goals.

The net bulged six times when these sides met here in December and Brighton's three most recent games have produced 15 goals.

No top-flight team has had more shots on target than Spurs' 45 so far this season and this could be a goal-fest.
