Brighton may have lost manager Graham Potter to Chelsea, but that didn’t stop them putting in a strong performance and earning a very creditable draw at Anfield last weekend. Leandro Trossard, who scored a hat-trick in that game, is a serious goalscoring threat. It was a positive start under new boss Roberto De Zerbi.

Spurs, meanwhile, slumped to a 3-1 defeat against Arsenal in the North London Derby, ending their unbeaten run in the Premier League. They posed danger on the break but it was generally a poor performance, made worst by a mistake from goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and a sending-off for wingback Emerson Royal. He now faces a three-match ban. While Antonio Conte’s side did perform better in the midweek Champions League match against Eintracht Frankfurt, they struggled to find a killer final ball.

The Seagulls have been flying high during the early part of the season, playing slick and incisive football. They go into the fixture in fourth place in the table and may be starting to dream of European qualification. A victory on Saturday will put them on level points with the visitors, who start the weekend one place above them in third.

Enock Mwepu may still be out with illness for Brighton. However, Tariq Lamptey and Adam Lallana are back in contention following spells on the sidelines.

As well as the suspended Royal, Lucas Moura and Dejan Kulusevski are out injured for Spurs. Yves Bissouma may feature against his old team. The club is also reeling following the death of fitness coach Gian Piero Ventrone in the week, an important member of Conte’s backroom staff.

Here's how they line up:

Brighton: Sanchez, Veltman, Dunk, Webster, March, Mac Allister, Caicedo, Estupinan, Gross, Welbeck, Trossard.

Tottenham Hotspur: Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Doherty, Bissouma, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Sessegnon, Son, Kane.

The home team have won 2 of the last 3 encounters between these two sides. Can they keep that run going or can Harry Kane and co. bounce back after their derby defeat? Find out by watching the Brighton vs Tottenham live stream.
