Brighton vs Tottenham: Predictions , Preview, Lineups, H2h for September 20, 2025

This Saturday, one of the key matches of Matchweek 5 in the English Premier League will take place at the Amex Stadium in Falmer. Brighton will host Tottenham from London. Both teams are known for their aggressive play and attacking style, making this match exciting.

Match preview

Brighton is demonstrating their ability to compete with top teams this season, particularly at home. They have earned 4 points at the Amex, including a win against Manchester City. However, they faced challenges in away games against Bournemouth and Everton. Interestingly, in 10 of their last 13 Premier League matches, both teams scored, indicating Brighton’s strong attack but also weaknesses in defense.

Brighton’s home form is notable, remaining unbeaten in their last six Premier League matches. Despite injury issues, including defensive players and Enciso in attack, Brighton continues to create chances. Mitoma and Minteh are key threats on the wings, while James Milner provides important experience and balance in midfield.

Tottenham, led by Thomas Frank, are meeting expectations, having lost only once in their first four matches. They quickly moved on from a defeat against Bournemouth with a solid 3-0 victory over West Ham. They have managed to keep clean sheets in all three of their wins, reflecting strong defensive play.

However, in their last 11 Premier League matches, Tottenham has secured only three wins, showing mixed results. Their attacking lineup is impressive, particularly in away games. Players like Simons and Tel have excelled, and Palhinha’s presence has strengthened the midfield. With some squad challenges, Tottenham may focus on quick counter-attacks.

Probable lineups

• Brighton: Verbruggen, Veltman, van Hecke, Dunk, de Keijper, Mitoma, Milner, Hinshelwood, Minteh, Welbeck, Rutter
• Tottenham: Vicario, Spence, Romero, van de Ven, Porro, Palhinha, Bergvall, Simons, Kudus, Sarr, Tel

Match facts and head-to-head

• At least 3 goals have been scored in each of the last 5 meetings between these teams
• Brighton is unbeaten at home in their last 6 Premier League matches
• All of Tottenham’s wins this season have come with clean sheets

Prediction

Brighton plays freely at home, especially against tough opponents. Tottenham is equally effective away and capable of scoring. Given both teams’ attacking strengths and a trend toward high-scoring matches, betting on “over 2.5 goals” at 1.65 seems like a reasonable option.
