Tottenham are fighting for the Champions League zone at the end of the season. The team is ranked 4th in the table, but it can easily lose it. After all, Manchester United, who scored the same number of points, have 2 matches to play and are second only by additional indicators.
After a 3-3 draw with Southampton, Antonio Conte publicly criticized the club’s management and players, for which he was sacked. Christian Stellini will lead the remainder of the season. In his debut match as a mentor, he was unable to break Everton’s resistance (1-1), and the result was decided by a missed goal in the 90th minute.
Brighton play nice attacking football that is based on monopolizing possession (59.7%) and positional attacking. In terms of the number of offensive passes (1,325), the Seagulls are second only to Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool. This style allows you to create an average of 1.84xg per game (3rd) with 1.2xg allowed (5th). Brighton are heading into the upcoming fixture on a seven-match unbeaten streak in all competitions.
Most likely, in the remaining matches Tottenham will play with more emphasis on attack, because Conte’s main complaint was precisely his boring style of play. Against the backdrop of Brighton’s productive game, I think the game will be productive.
