Betting on Tottenham
Antonio Conte’s departure from Tottenham, following the Champions League round of 16 elimination at the hands of Milan, does not seem to have been enough to change the team’s momentum.
For the second consecutive matchday Spurs drew against a team that occupies one of the bottom five places in the standings, as before their draw against Everton they did the same at home to bottom side Southampton.
Not only have these draws taken Tottenham out of the Champions League places, but they are fifth, with 50 points, only four points ahead of Brighton, who also have two games in hand.
With no competition pending and back at home, Cristian Stellini’s men must win to avoid a catastrophe greater than the one they have experienced this year after also being eliminated in the first round of the Carabao Cup and in the round of 16 of the FA Cup for second division clubs.
For this game, Tottenham needs its offense, led by Harry Kane, the tournament’s second top scorer with 22 goals, to maintain the records it make them the third-highest goal scoring offensive line in the Premier league with 53 goals. But, above all, that their defense responds, as no team in the top 10 has conceded more goals than the 41 they have conceded..
If they can solve their problems in the back line, a positive result at home is very feasible. Tottenham is the fifth team with the most points recorded at home and has won the last four games with eight goals scored and one conceded.
Probable lineup (3-4-2-1): Hugo Lloris; Cristian Romero, Eric Dier, Clement Lenglet; Pedro Porro, Oliver Skipp, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Ivan Perisic; Dejan Kulusevski, Heung-Min Son; Harry Kane.
Betting on Brighton
Brighton has come a long way since narrowly missing out on a European spot last season. They’ve stepped up their game and are one of the most pleasant surprises in the Premier League this year, having only lost one of their last 11 matches.
However, their spot in Europe is far from secure. With a tough schedule ahead, winning against a direct rival like Tottenham this Saturday is imperative for their aspirations.
However, their spot in Europe is far from secure. With a tough schedule ahead, winning against a direct rival like Tottenham this Saturday is imperative for their aspirations. Currently sitting in sixth place with 46 points, they have two games in hand and are in a Conference League spot. The problem is that two of their remaining 11 games are against Arsenal and Chelsea, while they also face Manchester City and Manchester United twice (in the Premier League and FA Cup semifinals).
That’s why Roberto de Zerbi’s team must make the most of their excellent away form this season in their game against Spurs. They’ve accumulated the fourth-highest number of points on the road with 22, and are the second-highest scorers away from home with 26 goals,
just two behind Arsenal and one ahead of the mighty Manchester City. However, their defense has been less impressive, conceding 20 goals in away matches despite their solid overall defensive performance this year.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Jason Steele; Jöel Veltman, Levi Colwill, Lewis Dunk, Pervis Estupiñán; Pascal Gross, Moisés Caicedo; Solly March, Alexis Mac Allister, Kaoru Mitoma; Evan Ferguson.
JefeBet Prediction
This Saturday we should be prepared to witness a fast-paced, interesting and eye-catching game between two of the most entertaining teams in the Premier League. While Tottenham is third in goals scored with 53, Brighton are fourth in the league with 51 and have the second most goals scored away from home.
In addition, in nine of their 14 home games the Spurs have conceded at least one goal and have scored in 12 of them, while Brighton has scored in 12 of their 13 away games, and only once have they kept the home team scoreless.
While the last three meetings between the two clubs have been scoreless, the conditions for this Saturday’s matchups are more than ripe for the DraftKings to play the -155 line for both teams to score and you can win $65 for every $100 wagered.
Prediction: Both teams score (TOT 2 – BRI 2).
