Tottenham will think they have put the brakes on their recent slide after scoring eight goals in their last two games at Wembley, but Chris Hughton's Brighton could make life tough for them.

Spurs have plenty of forward ability, but they have had to be patient on several occasions at the national stadium and they have been winning at half-time in just two of their eight league games at the venue.

Brighton have lost five of their eight on the road, but have not conceded more than two goals in any of those games.

Recommendation
Draw-Tottenham double result
1pt 13-4 188Bet
