Brighton & Hove Albion will be aiming to match visiting Tottenham Hotspur’s 17 points in the Premier League table at Amex Stadium on Oct. 8. Tottenham has won six of the 10 previous matches and earned one draw. Each team was victorious on the other’s home pitch last season, with Spurs winning 2-0 and the Seagulls winning 1-0.
Tottenham is 5-2-1 and sits third in the Premier League behind Arsenal (21 points) and Manchester City (20 points). Spurs has scored 19 goals and allowed 10. Brighton & Hove Albion is fourth with 14 points (4-2-1), 14 goals scored and eight goals allowed.

Tottenham’s Harry Kane has the second most Premier League goals this season with seven but is seven behind Manchester City’s Erling Haaland. Leandro Trossard leads BHA with five goals, tied for fourth most in the league and one ahead of teammate Alexis Mac Allister. Pascal Gross has three goals for the Seagulls, tied for 12th with 10 others.

Brighton & Hove Albion has been on quite a run this season, and that continued in its last match despite having lost manager Graham Potter to Chelsea. The Seagulls earned a 3-3 draw with Liverpool at Anfield as Trossard scored a hat-trick. It was a thriller for Roberto De Zerbi’s debut managing the club. Now they get Tottenham, which is coming off a 3-1 loss at Arsenal. At what point do BHA’s performances go from surprising to expected? This may well be the week. Final Score Prediction, Draw 1-1.
