Brighton vs Tottenham Prediction
Brighton vs Tottenham Prediction and Betting Tips for Saturday’s Premier League clash at the AMEX Stadium. Brighton return to home turf hoping to build on last season’s double over Spurs, while Thomas Frank’s side look to continue their strong defensive start. In this article, you’ll discover Premier League Predictions from XpertStats tipsters, combining stats, form, and tactical insight for fans who want a deeper edge.
- Brighton have won three of their last four Premier League meetings with Tottenham, including a historic double last season.
- Tottenham have conceded just one goal in 450 minutes across all competitions this season.
- Brighton are unbeaten in their last six home Premier League matches (W3 D3).
- Both teams average 2.5 goals per match this season, suggesting an attacking encounter.
Brighton come into this fixture after a mixed start to the season. A sensational 2-1 win over Manchester City highlighted their potential, but a narrow defeat to Bournemouth showed the fine margins in the Premier League. Fabian Hurzeler’s men have been resilient at the AMEX, unbeaten in six consecutive home games, and they’ll lean on Yankuba Minteh’s impressive take-on rate and Kaoru Mitoma’s attacking threat. Injuries remain a concern, with Jack Hinshelwood and Maxim De Cuyper doubtful, but Mats Wieffer is expected to return to the lineup. Can Brighton replicate last season’s success against Spurs, or will the Lilywhites finally break the jinx?
Tottenham, on the other hand, have been formidable under Thomas Frank. The North London side have won their first two away league games 5-0 on aggregate and have conceded just one goal across 450 minutes this term. Their shift to a more defensive, cohesive style has yielded results, with back-to-back wins over West Ham and Villarreal, including a clean sheet in the Champions League opener. Even so, the trip to Brighton is tricky, with Frank having lost both previous league meetings against the Seagulls. Still, Spurs’ form and defensive solidity make them tough to beat on the road.
Team news could play a pivotal role. Brighton may be without De Cuyper and Hinshelwood, which could see Ferdi Kadioglu and either Carlos Baleba or Yasin Ayari stepping up. Meanwhile, Tottenham are missing Dominic Solanke, James Maddison, and several others, but Destiny Udogie and João Palhinha could return to the lineup. Richarlison is likely to lead the attack, with Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons offering support. How Frank balances freshness with quality after a midweek European clash is a question that could shape the result.
Statistically, this is a clash of contrasts. Brighton have the lowest PPDA this season (9.5), press aggressively, and turn turnovers into dangerous attacks, while Spurs rely on structured defense and lethal counter-attacks. Both teams average 2.5 goals per match, and only Tottenham have kept a clean sheet in all recent away matches. Both teams have strengths, but an away win or draw seems the most consistent with current form, making it one of the more compelling Premier League Predictions this weekend.
Thomas Frank has provided an update on Spurs striker Dominic Solanke, confirming he is back in training but will miss the upcoming Premier League clash against Brighton and the midweek cup tie against Doncaster. The Spurs boss described Solanke’s return as “progressing forward slowly but positive,” while praising captain Cristian Romero for his leadership and defensive consistency.

Brighton’s home form is impressive, but Tottenham’s defensive record cannot be ignored. Spurs have won both away games this season without conceding, scoring five goals in total. Brighton, while strong on the attack, have only won one of four league matches this season and were beaten by Bournemouth last weekend. The Lilywhites’ defensive discipline under Thomas Frank has limited chances for opponents, and their structure makes scoring at the AMEX a tough task. With Brighton missing key players like Hinshelwood and De Cuyper, Tottenham’s chances of at least a draw increase. Brighton’s pressing game will test Spurs, but the North Londoners have shown resilience in high-pressure situations. Given the stats and form, a draw or away win (X2) represents a realistic outcome, balancing Brighton’s attacking threat with Spurs’ defensive consistency and current momentum.
