Following their explosive win at Old Trafford last weekend, the Tottenham boys will be looking for a third straight win in the Premier League.
Domestically, it’s a second away game on the spin for Spurs, who on Sunday will venture south to take on Brighton at Amex Stadium. Can they stop the Seagulls from flying high in front of their own fans? Read on for our Brighton vs Tottenham predictions.
Brighton vs Tottenham prediction
For the Brighton vs Tottenham match prediction, we believe the final score will be a 3-2 win for Tottenham based on our analysis.
We know that Spurs won’t look to keep things tight, that’s simply not how they play under Postecoglou, so there should be plenty of offensive joy for the hosts, but given the level of defending we’ve seen from the hosts in recent weeks, it’s easy to fancy the visitors to outscore their opponents here.

Brighton vs Tottenham preview
This match will be played on 06/10/2024 at Amex Stadium. Kick off will be at 16:30 GMT.
The Seagulls had begun to fly quite high, winning each of their first two Premier League fixtures, before drawing against Arsenal, Ipswich and Nottingham Forest, but they came crashing down last weekend.
Despite scoring two goals at Stamford Bridge, the Brighton boys were well beaten by a rampant Chelsea team, or rather a rampant Chelsea player in Cole Palmer, who scored all four goals.
Following that defeat, the team managed by 31-year-old Fabian Hürzeler will be looking to bounce back, though a game against an in-form Spurs side isn’t exactly what the doctor ordered following such a hammering.
For Spurs and big Ange, it’s a case of needing more of the same following what was a resounding win at Old Trafford. From the first whistle last weekend, Spurs looked in rampant mood, brushing their opponents aside.
Having scored three goals against both Brentford and Manchester United recently, Postecoglou’s men will be searching for more offensive joy at Amex Stadium.
It’s worth noting that Spurs do have a Europa League engagement on Thursday evening. They’re due to play away against Hungarian side Ferencvaros, but several changes are expected, preventing that from being too much of a disruption.
Brighton vs Tottenham Betting tips
I’m keeping it simple here, with just one player bet that stands out at the early odds:
Dominic Solanke to Score
Life in a Spurs shirt didn’t exactly start swimmingly for Dominic Solanke, who missed several clear-cut scoring opportunities on debut against Leicester, before being ruled out of the next few leagues games with injury.
Despite putting himself about, huffing and puffing, the forward drew a blank against Arsenal, but having notched his first goal of the season against Brentford recently, the man who scored regular goals for Bournemouth last season has started to come to life.
Spurs’ new focal point notched in the Europa League last Thursday, showing clever movement and goal-scoring instinct, before tapping home against United at the weekend, again showing a real poachers nous.
With three goals under his belt, and with Spurs’ creative players in strong form, Solanke looks set to do what he did last season and score goals on a regular basis.
Given what we’ve seen from the forward, Spurs in general and Brighton in a defensive sense of late, early odds of 7/4 look very user friendly. At such a price, the 27-year-old marksman is well worth betting on to score again.
