Tottenham preview: Genuinely going down
Tottenham Hotspur begin this weekend's round of fixtures sitting in the bottom three after West Ham United's 4-0 hammering of Wolverhampton Wanderers last week before Spurs' 1-0 defeat to Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.
While with Brighton, many players, including captain Lewis Dunk, said the start of the De Zerbi era was all over the place. Spurs needed and need an instant impact but things looked like more of the same last week and relegation is now more than likely, quite remarkably.
Brighton preview: Soaring Seagulls
Brighton, on the other hand, find themselves in the hunt for a top six finish and potentially even UEFA Champions League qualification with the Seagulls in excellent form ahead of this weekend.
The visitors comfortably defeated Burnley by two goals to nil at Turf Moor last weekend, courtesy of a brace of goals from versatile Netherlands international midfielder Mats Wieffer in Lancashire.

Tottenham vs Brighton prediction
Brighton have now enjoyed five victories in their last six matches as a result of that win up in the north of England. Spurs, amazingly, haven't won a Premier League game in 2026 and, from a narrative perspective; De Zerbi, a manager that eventually fell out with Brighton supporters and the club's hierarchy, being further punished and pushed towards ignominy already in Tottenham seems simply likely on Saturday evening.
