Brighton vs Tottenham Prediction & Betting Tips (6 October)

After a particularly notable stint, coach Roberto De Zerbi left Brighton this summer to join OM. This is an important event for this team which is now under the aegis of the young Fabian Hurzeler, 31 years old, who was in the heyday of Sankt Pauli. The Seagulls got off to a good start, conceding no setbacks in the first 5 days, 2 wins and 3 draws. On the other hand, they appear less sovereign since the return of the international break in September. After sharing the points with Ipswich 0-0 and Nottingham Forest 2-2, Brighton conceded their first setback last weekend, on the lawn of Chelsea 4-2.5th in the Premier League with 2 points behind 4th place Last year, Tottenham narrowly missed out on qualifying for the Champions League.

This season, the London team hopes to return to the Big 4 which has eluded them since 2022. The Spurs now occupy 8th place in the standings with 10 points taken in 6 matches. After having suffered two losses against Newcastle 2-1 and Arsenal 0-1, they brilliantly resumed their march forward by winning against Brentford 3-1 and on the pitch of Manchester United last weekend 0-3. This week, Tottenham won at Ferencvaros on the 2nd day of the Europa League 1-2.

For this meeting, Brighton records the defections of important striker Joao Pedro, summer recruits O'Riley and Gruda, veteran Milner and long-term missing winger March. Former Lille player Baleba is shining at the start of the season and now serves as a manager in the midfield. Bought at a high price this summer, French striker Rutter unlocked his account with the Seagulls last weekend. He could once again constitute the attacking trio with Mitoma (1 goal and 1 assist in PL) and Welbeck (3 goals and 1 assist in PL). Tottenham's offensive sector is diminished by the withdrawals of captain Son, rookie Odobert and of Brazilian international Richarlison.

Furthermore, the starting left side Udogie is also injured. Full of confidence, winger Johnson (2 goals in PL) continues to shine. He has scored in each of the last 5 matches played in all competitions. Up front, we could find the expensive recruit Solanke (2 goals in 4 PL matches, 1 goal and 1 assist in C3).
