Tottenham Hotspur vs Brighton & Hove Albion Prediction, Odds and Picks for Saturday, 04/18/26

Roberto De Zerbi saw his Spurs side defeated 1-0 at Sunderland in his first game in charge, and now he oversees his first home game in the hot seat against former club Brighton. There was little evidence of any ‘new boss bounce’ for Tottenham at the Stadium of Light as Sunderland were deserved winners and De Zerbi’s wait for his first points as manager looks likely to stretch beyond this weekend. Brighton arrive in fine form as they push for European qualification with 5 wins in their last 6 games, losing 1-0 to pacesetters Arsenal during that run.

Tottenham are in the relegation zone and desperately need to find some form if they are to pull clear, but they haven’t shown much fight for some time. Spurs have lost 8 of their last 10 games and have just 2 points to show from their last 8 home games, with their last Premier League win coming at Crystal Palace back in December. De Zerbi is in danger of running out of time to turn Spurs’ fortunes around, and a win for the visitors has to be the standout bet here. Tottenham have the worst home record in the EPL with 10 defeats in 16 games, shipping 28 goals in the process. Brighton are in form and they have an excellent recent record against Spurs with 3 wins and just 1 defeat in the last 5 meetings.
