Mauricio Pochettino’s men were on the end of a humiliating 7-2 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
As a result, Spurs fans will be demanding for a comprehensive win versus Brighton on Saturday.
Meanwhile, Brighton has just won the one game in the Premier League and will be eying a positive result against a Spurs team in low spirit.

Brighton Team News
Apart from the 3-0 win against Watford in the opening league fixture, Brighton has faced three draws and three defeats so far.
Graham Potter has quite a few injury concerns for the game against Tottenham.
Jose Izquierdo, Leon Balogun, Shane Duffey and Davy Popper remain are all ruled out for Saturday’s fixture.
Bernardo and Solly March are doubtful to be present in the team sheet too.
Ezequiel Schelotto is back from his knee injury, but it seems unlikely that Graham Potter will risk him immediately.
Tottenham Team News
Tottenham’s inconsistency this season is causing quite a few fans to have second thoughts about having Mauricio Pochettino in charge of the club.
Tottenham currently resides at the sixth spot with 11 points on board while being 10 points away from league leaders Liverpool.
In terms of injury updates, Giovani Lo Celso and Ryan Sessegnon continue to be on the sidelines.
Serge Aurier’s red card against Southampton over the weekend means that the full-back won’t be available for Spurs against Brighton.
Davinson Sanches can be expected to come in Aurier’s place, while Christian Eriksen could also feature in the team sheet on Saturday.
Starting Lineups
Brighton- Ryan; Webster, Dunk, Burn; Montoya, Groß, Stephens, Mooy, Alzate; Maupay, Connolly
Tottenham- Lloris; Sissoko, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies; Dier, Ndombele, Eriksen; Lamela, Son, Kane
Key Points
In the last six meetings between the two sides, Tottenham has had the majority of the say with five wins under their belt.
One game has ended in level terms during that period.
Tottenham has failed to win their last nine away Premier League games.
Top Picks
Son Heung-Min and Harry Kane both got their names on the score sheet against Bayern Munich and continued their goal-scoring run.
Kane has scored five goals in the league in seven games, while Son has scored and assisted two in five league appearances.
With Tottenham heavily relying on getting all three points on Saturday, Pascal Groß can prove to be the architect in countering the attack from midfield for Brighton.
