Brighton form & balance check
Brighton & Hove Albion will in all likelihood not have much to do with relegation this season. The team of coach Graham Potter currently has 33 points on the account and thus the men from Brighton are in a commanding 13th place. However, the Seagulls’ form curve is clearly pointing downwards. If we take a closer look at the last few weeks, we can see a clear negative trend. The last five games were all lost and last weekend’s game against Liverpool FC was also unsuccessful. Against the Reds there was a 0:2 defeat.
Does the negative run continue?
Five defeats in a row speak a more than clear language. One of the main reasons for this series is the weak offense. In the past five games, there was only one goal in the 1:2 against Newcastle a few weeks ago. In total, Brighton has scored only 26 goals this season. Only bottom-placed Norwich and Burnley FC have scored less often. Against Tottenham, the entire team will have to step up at least one notch.
Brighton facts & analysis
– Last 5 games all lost
– Only 1 goal from 5 games
– Last lost 0:2 against Liverpool
Tottenham form & balance check
Spurs continue to fight for participation in international competition for the upcoming season. If the supporters of the North Londoners have their way, they will see their club back in the top flight next year. To be honest, Spurs are currently quite far away from that. Currently, there are too many fluctuating performances, including last weekend against Man United. After the 5-0 win against Everton, Spurs traveled to Old Trafford with a broad chest. In the end, Tottenham were beaten 3-2 by three Ronaldo goals.
Harry Kane in top form
Harry Kane remains Tottenham Hotspur’s life insurance policy. Without his goals, the Londoners would not be where they are now. In 2022, things are going much better for the Three Lions captain than they were in the first half of the season and that is also noticeable in the bare numbers. Kane, for example, has scored a whopping six goals in his last five Premier League games. Together with Son, Tottenham have a congenial duo up front who should provide the goals again against Brighton.
Tottenham facts & analysis
– 3 wins from the last 5 games.
– Kane has scored 6 goals in the last 5 games
– Last lost 3-2 to United
Predicted lineup – last update on March 14, 2022
The Seagulls from Brighton probably want to go with a 4-2-3-1 in the upcoming match. Despite losing five in a row, coach Graham Potter is unlikely to go defensive. Maupey is expected to score the necessary goals in attack. The upcoming opponent from London will rely on a 3-4-2- as in last weekend’s 2:3 against Man United. Kane, Son and Kulusevski will probably form the front line again.
