Tottenham to edge high-scoring encounter

Matches involving either of these two sides have seen more than their fair share of goals being scored, with a combined total of 25 games seeing at the net bulge at least three times.

Spurs just edge out Brighton in terms of goals scored, with the 37 netted for Ange Postecoglou’s men just three better than the Seagulls.

Brighton’s European exploits have also seen plenty of converted chances, with Brazilian summer signing Joao Pedro leading the competition with six goals, as Roberto De Zerbi’s men topped a group which included giants Marseille and Ajax.

However, Albion have struggled to keep a sturdy backline, with their last clean sheet at home coming at the beginning of May, and also have multiple defensive injury concerns.

Back Spurs to exploit these frailties with a win and for Brighton to grab a goal themselves.

Son-bird to keep singing

Postecoglou’s start to life as Tottenham manager took a major blow when superstar striker and captain Harry Kane moved to Bayern Munich in the summer.

Questions were asked regarding who was going to fill his gigantic boots and it is no surprise that South Korean Heung-Min Son, who formed a clinical partnership with Kane, has done just that.

The new captain has scored 11 goals in the league this season, as well as recording four assists, and is fourth in the goal-scoring charts.

Son has registered three goals and three assists in his last five, including scoring at both ends against Manchester City. Expect the Korean to continue his fine form on Thursday.

Referee to become familiar with Kulusevski

Spurs defender Cristian Romero has a reputation for tough tackling and regular bookings, so it may come as a surprise that the Argentinian has not conceded the most fouls at the club this season.

Swedish forward Dejan Kulusevski has the honour of topping that particular chart, with his tally of 33 fouls committed almost triple Romero’s figure of 12.

Kulusevski has registered the same number of yellow cards as his team-mate, with four.

This tendency toward ill-discipline is likely to get the Swede in trouble with referee Jarred Gillett, who has awarded 46 bookings already this season.

Back the Swede to be penalised on multiple occasions.
