Tottenham vs Brighton: TV Channel, Kick-Off Time and How to Watch Premier League Fixture

Everything you need to know ahead of the Premier League clash between Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton & Hove Albion, including TV channel details, kick-off time, team news, and predicted line-ups.

Match Overview and Context

Tottenham will aim to halt their alarming slide towards the Championship with their first home game under new manager Roberto De Zerbi, as they face his former club, Brighton. The Italian's tenure began disastrously with a 1-0 defeat to Sunderland, compounded by a season-ending knee injury to captain Cristian Romero, deepening the club's woes.

Spurs enter this fixture without a Premier League win in 2026 and are two points from safety with only six games remaining. In stark contrast, Brighton are on a three-match winning streak and sit just two points behind Chelsea in sixth place, actively pursuing a European qualification spot. They secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over struggling Burnley in their last outing and will look to replicate that success against another relegation-threatened opponent.
