Brighton and Hove Albion host Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday (Watch live, 7:30 a.m. ET on NBCSN and online via NBCSports.com) with the Seagulls aiming to pile more misery on Mauricio Pochettino and Spurs.
Graham Potter’s Brighton only have one win to their name this season but are playing attractive, attacking football and are capable of causing an upset.
Spurs were hammered 7-2 by Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday and after their League Cup exit to Colchester United, the pressure is on Pochettino. Spurs last won away in the Premier League back in January, and a big win here will ease some of the pressure heading into the international break.
In team news Brighton bring in teenage striker Aaron Connolly for Yves Bissouma, while Spurs bring in Ben Davies, Eric Dier, Erik Lamela and Christian Eriksen to the starting lineup.
