Tottenham vs Brighton LIVE
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Date: Tuesday, 23 April, 2019
Kick-off: 7.45pm BST, tonight
Tottenham will look to shake off their loss to Manchester City and tighten their grip on a top-four finish when they welcome Brighton to their new stadium tonight.
A 1-0 loss to the champions will have come as a surprise to few but Spurs now look at their four remaining fixtures of the season knowing maximum points is achievable.
Thankfully for Spurs, in light of the defeat on Saturday, their top-four rivals in Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United also failed to win so victory tonight will go some way to securing third or fourth spot.
Brighton, meanwhile, have not scored in their previous five games but remain just outside the relegation zone thanks to Cardiff City's struggles.

Score prediction: Tottenham 2-0 Brighton
Despite Saturday's 1-0 loss at Manchester City, Tottenham appear to have shaken off their March slump and should record another victory on Tuesday night.
As ever, Heung-min Son has stepped up in Harry Kane's absence while Lucas Moura looks hungry to take the most of his run in the starting XI.
Brighton, on the other hand, are in free fall having won just one point from their previous five games, failing to score a goal in that run. Cardiff's equally dismal form is their only hope of avoiding relegation.
