Roberto De Zerbi will introduce himself to the Amex faithful in the final game of Saturday’s Premier League TV schedule as Brighton host Tottenham down on the South Coast.
De Zerbi must have thought he was dreaming when he saw his new side take a 2-0 lead at Anfield 17 minutes into his first game in charge thanks to Leandro Trossard’s brace and will have been impressed by the fight they showed to bag a late equaliser after Liverpool had turned the tables – with Trossard capping off a hat-trick to earn them a well-deserved point.
That result means the Seagulls remain fourth in the table, with a game in hand on the three teams above them, and have plenty of momentum ahead of Saturday afternoon’s game at the Amex.
The same cannot be said for Spurs, who need to dust themselves down and go again after last weekend’s North London derby defeat.
Emerson Royal’s red card made things difficult for Antonio Conte’s side but there is no denying they were second best for much of the game as their recent struggles at the Emirates continued.
That 3-1 loss was their first Premier League defeat of the season but following it up with a goalless draw against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League will have done little to raise spirits ahead of Saturday.

Our prediction: Brighton v Tottenham
There was plenty to be impressed by in De Zerbi’s first game in charge of Brighton and he will hope for more of the same against Tottenham, whose form since the international break suggests an upset could be on the cards.
It’s hard to know just yet how much credit to give the new boss as much of their success at Anfield is surely due to what Graham Potter built but we should get to see more of the Italian’s identity as the season wears on.
Brighton are likely to get their chances against Spurs and the game could be decided by how clinical the visitors’ front three can be.
Our prediction: Brighton 2-2 Tottenham (14/1 at bet365)
