Tottenham vs Brighton: Premier League prediction, H2H, team news, lineups, live stream, TV, odds - preview

Tottenham are looking to get back to winning ways as they host Brighton on Boxing Day.

The Premier League reaches its halfway mark with Spurs six points off fourth place after a 2-0 home loss to Chelsea, only Jose Mourinho's second league loss since being appointed.

Brighton are in the midst of a bad run with just one win in their last seven - though that come on their last visit to north London with a 2-1 triumph over Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

The game is today with kick-off at 12.30pm GMT.

Team news and lineups

Tottenham: Heung-min Son is suspended for three games following his red card against Chelsea, with Spurs failing in an appeal .

Elsewhere, Tanguy Ndombele should be fit to start after coming off the bench - and impressing - against Chelsea. Erik Lamela is still not match fit.

Hugo Lloris and Ben Davies are long-term absentees.

Brighton: No fresh injury concerns for Graham Potter, who will hope to welcome Solly March back early in the new year. Jose Izquierdo is a longer-term absentee.​

How we think the sides could line up…

Tottenham: Gazzaniga; Aurier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Winks, Dier; Sissoko, Dele, Lucas; Kane

Brighton: Ryan; Alzate, Webster, Dunk, Burn; Propper, Stephens, Gross, Mooy; Maupay, Connolly​
