Spurs are missing their entire creative core (Maddison, Kulusevski, Kudus) and their defensive leader (Romero), leaving them vulnerable to Brighton's high-efficiency transitions. 3. Brighton is the league's form team with 5 wins in their last 6, though they must compensate for the suspension of captain Lewis Dunk. 4.
