Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction and Betting Tips

TOTTENAHM HOTSPUR will be bidding to bounce back from a bruising North London derby defeat when they travel to Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday evening.

Antonio Conte's side saw their seven-game unbeaten start in the English premier League grind to a halt with a 3-1 reverse away to arch-rivals Arsenal.

That setback means Spurs remain third in the standings, however they now trail their North London neighbours by four points.

After playing out a forgetful 0-0 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League in midweek, Tottenham will be keen to get back on track when they make the trip to Brighton this weekend.

Roberto De Zerbi's Seagulls tenure opened in sensational style as the Italian’s first game in charge ended in a thrilling 3-3 draw away at Liverpool.

As such, Brighton have banked 14 points from the opening seven games of the season and they will be eager to add to that excellent tally when they entertain Tottenham on Saturday evening.

Outright Betting

Brighton, who have avoided defeat in 11 of their last 12 Premier League matches, are slight outsiders at 15/8 (UniBet) while a share of the spoils on the south coast pays 12/5 (Bet 365).

Tottenham picked up a victory at this venue back in March and the same outcome on Saturday can be backed at a best 18/11 (SBK).

Betting Angles

There isn't a huge amount of appeal in the outright betting here but backing both teams to score looks like a worthy alternative at 4/5 with William Hill.

While Brighton have once again proven themselves to be a tough nut to crack this season, they could struggle to keep out top-heavy Tottenham.

Antonio Conte's side are the third-top scorers in the Premier League season, with the capital club scoring at least once in each of their eight outings thus far.

However, at the other end of the park, Spurs have failed to shut out their opponents in six of their eight league games this season, conceding at least once in three of their four road games.

That doesn't bode well given that Brighton have made the net bulge in 13 of their last 15 Premier League fixtures, with the Seagulls racking up no fewer than eight strikes across their last two top-flight assignments.

With all this in mind, coupled with the fact that both teams have scored in six of Spurs' opening eight league games of the campaign, going for goals at both ends at the Amex stands out 4/5 (William Hill).

I've successfully highlighted Harry Kane to score in several of my match previews this season and I make no apology for siding with the same selection on Saturday at 7/4 with Bet 365.

The Tottenham talisman has scored in six of his last seven Premier League appearances, so the 7/4 (Bet 365) on him to continue his hot-streak in front of goal is a price that definitely represents value.
