Tottenham will be hoping to maintain their great start to the 2025/26 campaign when they travel to the Amex Stadium to face Brighton in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon. The visitors come off the back of a 1-0 win at home to Villarreal in their first game of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) league phase in midweek.
Meanwhile, the hosts will be aiming to bounce back from their 2-1 defeat away at Bournemouth last time out. Nonetheless, we are expecting an entertaining affair when these two sides match up against each other.

Player to watch: Kaoru Mitoma
Kaoru Mitoma scored a consolation goal for Brighton in their 2-1 defeat away at Bournemouth in the Premier League last time out. He also assisted in the Seagulls' previous home game, a 2-1 win against Manchester City, and so the Japan international winger is a player in form and one that Tottenham need to try and keep quiet.
