Tottenham Hotspur
We return to action at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday afternoon as Brighton & Hove Albion come to visit for a 3pm kick-off.
The Seagulls’ Head Coach Roberto De Zerbi won’t be in the dugout as he serves a touchline ban, but knows his side could climb to sixth with victory, while three points for us would see us move back into the top four, at least until Sunday.
