Brighton & Hove Albion are set to play host to Tottenham Hotspur at the American Express Community Stadium on Sunday for their latest English Premier League fixture.
Brighton & Hove Albion come into this game on the back of a 0-0 draw against Scott Parker's Fulham yesterday at the American Express Community Stadium. The Seagulls continue to be a frustrating unit, with the likes of Neal Maupay and Leandro Trossard unable to find the net against Fulham.
Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, lost 3-1 to Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool yesterday at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Goals from Brazilian attacker Roberto Firmino, right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold and Senegal international Sadio Mane ensured victory for Liverpool. Danish midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg scored the consolation goal for Tottenham Hotspur.

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction
Brighton & Hove Albion have one of the most talented managers in the league in Graham Potter, but the Seagulls are struggling results-wise. They are 17th in the league table, and the return of young Polish midfielder Jakub Moder and South African attacker Percy Tau from their loans could prove to be crucial.
Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, have slowed down after a good start to their season. Jose Mourinho's men are 6th in the league table, and with an injury to key striker Harry Kane, the likes of Gareth Bale and Lucas Moura will have to step up.
Brighton & Hove Albion, arguably, should be higher up the table. The absence of Kane could prove to be key, and a draw seems to be on the cards.
Prediction: Brighton & Hove Albion 1-1 Tottenham Hotspur
