Tottenham Hotspur are looking to follow up their impressive 3-0 win over Manchester United with another victory against Brighton.

Spurs have now won two Premier League games in a row having also seen off Brentford winning 3-1 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The North London club look to finally be clicking into gear under Ange Postecoglou, but they will need to continue to show their improvements at the Amex stadium.

The Seagulls have been in poor form over the last few weeks following an amazing start under new manager, Fabian Hurzeler. The German won his first two games in charge and managed to get a point away at the Emirates, however, they are now without a win in three and were smashed by Chelsea in their last outing.

Postecoglou will now be hoping to inflict more misery on the south coast club but he faces several questions around the team he will select.

Heung-min Son still and will Mikey Moore replace him?

Heung-min Son is likely to miss out on the trip again as he remains sidelined with a hamstring injury which also kept him out of Manchester United and Ferencvarosi. Wilson odobert also remains sidelined meaning Postecoglou must choose between Mikey Moore and Timo Werner to start on the left against Hurzeler’s team.

Moore made a brilliant first start against the Hungarian champions creating several chances throughout the match. The 17-year-old looked confident on the ball and has probably done enough for Postecoglou to start him again against Brighton.

Tottenham predicted XI vs Brighton

Postecoglou is unlikely to make too many changes from the team from the side that won at Old Trafford, with Moore for Werner the only change. The German was generally ok against the Red Devils but his poor finishing let him down as he spurned a hatful of chances.

Micky van de Ven, Rodrigo Bentancur, Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison, Brennan Johnson and Dominic Solanke were rested against Ferencvarosi and are all set to return to the lineup for the Premier League clash with the Seagulls.

Destiny Udogie is also a doubt for the match having been absent for their trip to Hungary. The Italian was forced off against Man United at half-time with a knock. Spurs have Djed Spence to replace him, although he is expected to be fit to feature.
