  • 45'
    HT: Tottenham 0 - 0 Brighton. First half saw some occasional chances by Spurs, but Brighton is set on not letting it happen, even if Alli almost makes it 1 - 0 in the last 30 seconds. Brighton have 9 fouls in this first half, and it looks like Andone will have to be careful the next 45 min...
  • 45'
    1 min of added time to this first half!
  • 43'
    Andone's fouling is happening too often now... He has to be careful as he could easily get sent off.
  • 42'
    Although the socre doesn't reflect it, this match has been intense! Brighton have woken up in the last 10 minutes and are looking to create some chances. They are often denied by Spurs defenders and Lloris though...
  • 40'
    A clear foul by Son there...
  • 37'
    Toby Alderweireld's right footed shot from outside the box is blocked!

    Yellow card! Florin Andone fouls Danny Rose.
  • 32'
    Another missed shot by Tottenham... Son had it, but the pass by Alli was not the best and Son falls. There are muted claims for a penalty kick, but it looked a fair challenge and Son doesn’t make too much of it.
  • 29'
    Erisken tries it from outside the box, but his shot was too wide...
  • 26'
    Son goes on a run down the right. He briefly threatens to open Brighton up, but eventually runs out of space...
  • 23'
    Now it's Danny Rose's turn to have a painful knee... what is happening to these Spurs players tonight?
  • 22'
    Good save by Lloris! The Frenchman keeps the ball away after a powerful strike.
  • 20'
    What was that! That free kick turned into a messy looking play by Brighton defenders and Spurs' Danny Rose... Brighton's Bernardo finally clears the ball.
  • 19'
    Tottnham are looking hungrier and hungrier now... Free kick for Spurs!
  • 17'
    Possession is 70% for Tottenham, 30% for Brighton... Says a lot doesn't it?
  • 15'
    Dele Alli seems to be in some kind of pain... Tottenham really can't afford to have more injured players ahead of their UCL clash!
  • 14'
    Free kick for Brighton after a foul on Jahanbakhsh!

    Game starts slowly but surely... Tottenham look hungry as they start to push their way in.

    Now for some head to head stats... Tottenham have the upper hand when it comes to head to head results between these two sides, having won 13 of the previous 27 clashes. Brighton have won six times and eight have ended all square.
  • PRVW
    Brighton meanwhile make six changes to the team named for the 0-0 at Wolves. Bruno, Gaetan Bong, Solly March, Davy Propper, Jose Izquierdo and Glenn Murray are out.
  • PRVW
    Now for lineup news, there seem to be plenty of changes from the weekend. Spurs make five swaps in the wake of their 1-0 loss at Manchester City. Hugo Lloris, Kieran Trippier, Danny Rose, Victor Wanyama and Fernando Llorente return. Paulo Gazzaniga, Davison Sanchez, Eric Dier, Ben Davies and Juan Foyth drop to the bench.
  • PRVW
    Cardiff's defeat against Liverpool on Sunday boosted their prospects of beating the drop, but the Seagull's will have to take matters into their own hands sooner rather than later.
  • PRVW
    Things aren't so great for Brighton... Other than the already-relegated Huddersfield, they are the in the worst run of form in the league. They've failed to score in five matches and have picked up one point along the way, which has resulted in their alarming drop down the table.
  • PRVW
    They are still one point ahead of Chelsea in fifth position and they'll be well aware that the Blues still have a crucial match against fellow top four rivals Manchester United to come.
  • PRVW
    On paper, Tottenham's recent form in the Premier League is pretty grim by their usual lofty standards. They've won just two of their previous seven matches in the league... But they are still in a good position to finish in the top four.
  • PRVW
    They'll no doubt be travelling to north London with the intention of getting a point, but qw can't imagine Tottenham will be letting that happen.
  • PRVW
    Brighton, on the other hand, look to be in the midst of an inescapable rut and there has been little to suggest that they are going to be capable of turning things around quickly.
  • PRVW
    They might however be a tad tired, especially when you consider the intensity of their last week... Facing the same team twice in a week is hard, and not any team at, as Man City are not too far from winning the Premier League.
  • PRVW
    Tottenham's defeat against Manchester City would have come as a minor blow, but it is unlikely to have dampened their spirits too much when you consider the highs they experienced after their Champions League exploits.
  • PRVW
    Now onto some team news and analysis!
  • PRVW
    Brighton & Hove Albion starting XI: Ryan, Montoya, Dunk, Duffy, Bernardo, Bissouma, Stephens, Gross, Jahanbakhsh, Andone, Locadia.

    Tottenham starting XI: Lloris, Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose, Eriksen, Wanyama, Alli, Lucas Moura, Llorente, Son.
