Two teams that are coming off home losses will now lock horns on Boxing Day, when Tottenham will play host to Brighton. Tottenham met a tough loss against Chelsea in the London Derby, while Brighton also fell against a really feisty opponent.

Brighton (5-8-5) played a really balanced match against Sheffield United at home, but conceded the only goal of the match for the final 1-0. They are now win-less in their last three but have lost just once in their last four (1-1-3). They are sitting at the 13th spot of the league table with 20 points, five ahead of the red line. Brighton have not been very good on the road (2-5-2), winning just once in their last eight but scoring in each of their last five.

Tottenham (7-6-5) were nowhere to be found in their home match against Chelsea, where they conceded two first-half goals to eventually lose by 2-0. They have not been in the best of shapes lately, with three losses in their last five matches in all competitions (2-3-0). Tottenham are now at the 7th spot of the Premier League with 26 points, six points behind the top-four. They have been quite solid at home (5-2-2), where they were undefeated in five consecutive prior to their loss to Chelsea.

Tottenham won both matches against Brighton last season, but they fell by a harsh 0-3 on the road in the first round this season. However, that was Brighton’s only win against Tottenham over the years (1-5-1). Tottenham have won each of the previous four matches in this venue and they have a great chance to bounce back to winning ways. Going with Tottenham to cover the spread here.
