Tottenham face a stern test in the bid for Premier League survival as they host Brighton on Saturday.
The hosts are now winless in 14 Premier League matches. And after consecutive defeats, they have slipped into the relegation zone.
New boss Roberto De Zerbi started life in charge with a defeat away to Sunderland last weekend, thus meaning that his side sit two points adrift of safety.
De Zerbi now prepares to take on his former employers, who are very much in the fight to secure European football for next season.
Brighton have won all but one of their last six Premier League matches, with their only defeat coming against Arsenal.
Manager Fabian Hurzeler’s side are only two points adrift of sixth-placed Chelsea, who occupy the Europa League qualification spot in the Premier League table.
What are the best bets for Tottenham vs Brighton?
Brighton to win, Danny Welbeck to score
However bad your season has gone, just remember that you could be Tottenham.
They are hopeless, and I don’t think any Tottenham fan would disagree with me, as the fact that a club of their size and stature are in a very dangerous position speaks volumes.
No win in 14 Premier League matches has seen them slip into the relegation zone, and with form against them, it is hard to see them picking up points in this match.
Brighton need to win in order to keep their push for European football alive, and with Tottenham looking devoid of ideas and quality, that’s what I’m going to back.
Take Brighton to win and Danny Welbeck to score, as he has done so in three of his last six appearances.
