A quieter-than-usual Saturday of Premier League football begins with Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton and Hove Albion.

Kick-off in north London is at 12:30 BST.

Antonio Conte makes one change from the Lilywhites’ 4-0 win at Aston Villa, and it’s an enforced one at that.

Matt Doherty is out for the season with a knee injury, so Sergio Reguilon comes in at left wing-back.

There is only one change made by Graham Potter after Brighton’s impressive victory over Arsenal last weekend.

Danny Welbeck drops to the bench, with Tariq Lamptey taking his place.

With Neal Maupay only a substitute again, Alexis Mac Allister takes up a central striking role.

GAMEWEEK 33 LINE-UPS

Spurs XI: Lloris, Emerson, Romero, Dier, Davies, Reguilón, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Kulusevski, Son, Kane

Brighton XI: Sánchez, Veltman, Dunk, Cucurella, Lamptey, Mwepu, Bissouma, Caicedo, Gross, Trossard, Mac Allister

    1. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Shouldn’t even have the opportunity to, absolutely scandalous

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Neither of those fouls were a second yellow though

        1. Scapegoat Salah
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Yes but we want a Spurs bloodbath

          1. Bubz
            • 12 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            I sold Son so have to disagree 😀

            1. Scapegoat Salah
              • 9 Years
              3 years, 9 months ago

              Wow brave call!

    2. yousunkmybattleship

  2. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Mwepu off at HT so.

  3. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Ref has Mwepu Captain

  4. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Who is that ref? Shocking

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      He free hitted with no Spurs players.

  5. FCSB
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Very Spursy, I knew this would happen bringing Son in… sorry guys

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Like Arsenal, once the pressures on...

  6. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Maybe people on here should wait for the actual decision instead of trying to be the first to post “X red card”

  7. Will Kane
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    What a truly abysmal 45 minutes from Spurs

    1. g40steve
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Where’s my points this week?

  8. Cruyff's Eleven
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Missed watching Craig Overton getting 13fer for this... 🙁

    1. Steve The Spud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      It’s a bit sad that bowlers like him tear up county cricket yet are completely ineffective at international level

    2. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Watched KL Rahul smash a century instead

  9. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Bps at half time stage favouring the well owned players
    3 - Højbjerg, Bissouma (12)
    1 - Dier (11)

    Davies (8)
    Romero (7)
    Lamptey (7)

    1. Rainer

      Son set.

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Emerson bonus looking unlikely 🙁

  10. BrockLanders
    • 10 Years

    Mudelski

    That would have been a horrible game to watch even if it was entertaining. White shirts against light blue in bright sunlight doesn't work, I'm using the colour of the shorts to tell them apart.

    1. Triple Free Bench Hit Boost
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Just wrote the same thing about the shirts. Thought I needed a trip to the optician.

  12. COLLIN QUANER
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Didn't captain Spurs this week as I knew they'd blank against a tough Brighton side. Red arrows this week for Son/Kane captains

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Thank you for that - I look forward to my juicy red arrow.

    2. GENERATION X
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Talk to you at 90 mins

    3. DycheDycheBaby
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Is the game over? Oh.

    4. WhatWouldYourZlatanSay
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      So when people ask you suggest Son as a captain and then say this. You are really very silly. Not in a good way.

    5. Jock Grealish
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      mystic meg here. do one.

  13. fantasist
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    So far regretting tripling up on Spurs, as well as bringing Son in and setting him captain

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      They were this bad in the first half last week too

    2. fantasist
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Yeah true, maybe another Conte half time talk will change things around completely 2nd half

    3. Boomerang V
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      same boat 🙁

  14. Stimps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Was planning Bruno (c) on the FH but the vicious hangover made me miss the deadline. It's on Kane 🙁

    1. Cruyff's Eleven
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      There's a few lessons in this story

      1. GENERATION X
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Same lesson of people finding any excuse possible rather than owning actions

  15. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Would be funny if Brighton start their DGW with a CS.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Experts mudded!

    2. Utopsis
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      My rival has him in nets

      1. Utopsis
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Sanchez that is, double CS vs Spurs & City incoming

    3. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      sanchez owners in heaven

    4. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Dunk on the bench. Almost expecting it.

  16. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Those who captained Son or Kane need to touch grass

    There are 6 gameweeks left. Take some risks

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      The way it's going those who captained Son or Kane need to smoke grass

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Smoke weed every day

        1. Cruyff's Eleven
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 9 months ago

          Hahaha...

          Deez' nuts

  17. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Know there is still 45 left but I allowed myself to fall into the early kick off captain again with Kane. Going to end in tears isn’t it whilst Bruno and Ronaldo run riot later

    1. Old Bull
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      There were two things that worried me about this game, the early start and that Spurs seem to struggle if teams sit back. Should be an interesting second half.

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Considering ManUtd scraped a 1-0 at Norwich earlier this season thanks to a late penalty, I don't think so

      1. Danstoke82
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Hoping for a better second half and wishing I had hit the FH button instead but oh well!

  18. Triple Free Bench Hit Boost
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Am I the only one thinking that the shirts are a little too similar in that sunshine? Or are my eyes going in old age?

    1. Rainer
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      It's bad on TV and the shadows make it worse.

      1. Triple Free Bench Hit Boost
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yeh I have heard 'the camera adds 10 pounds'. Didn't need it also changes colors. But yeh can imagine the shadows are playing a part and a bit easier when up close on the pitch.

          1. Triple Free Bench Hit Boost
            • 3 Years
            3 years, 9 months ago

            Never knew that ! Thanks!

    2. bitm2007

      Yes posted the following further up the page

      That would have been a horrible game to watch even if it was entertaining. White shirts against light blue in bright sunlight doesn't work, I'm using the colour of the shorts to tell them apart.

  19. Holmes
    • 12 Years

    Watching Spurs after a long time, not sure how they have been scoring so many goals 😀

    1. Jock Grealish
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      They won't score huge every game

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      It's almost as if Brighton are good...

      1. Jock Grealish
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        well they are on a high after last week

  20. jack88
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    Son captainers in the mud

    1. Jock Grealish
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      full time ok

  21. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 9 months ago

    In what world is that not a red card in the age of VAR? And I'm a Kulu owner.

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Insanity, horrendous refereeing and var

      • Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Yeah, he’s so lucky there

      • GENERATION X
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        He was saved by the fact that my ML leader owns him

      • DycheDycheBaby
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        It's such a joke. What is the point in VAR anymore. The PL don't know how to use it properly or the officials are just corrupted.

      • Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        This rule about not being able to retroactively change or look at decisions in which a yellow card was given is pathetic and needs to go, even if he's not going to be sent off for it here he should still be punished. This constant protection of referees to the extent that they can't be questioned by anyone is part of the reason why officiating standards are so poor, next to no accountability and no encouragement of growth or learning from mistakes

      • Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Everything going Az’s way this season!

    2. Triple Free Bench Hit Boost
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 9 months ago

      Did anyone risk bringing in a Brighton defender for their double?

      1. Holmes
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        I brought Sanchez in draft since no other GK was available 😎

      2. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 9 months ago

        Had Dunk for months. Hid him away 3rd on my bench.
