Tottenham take on fellow Premier League side, Brighton at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday night with kickoff at 23:00.
Tottenham Hotspur have not been at their best this season, but they have shown some signs of improvement recently following the appointment of Antonio Conte who has seen them rise into the seventh spot with just two points outside the Champions League places and have at least one game in hand on the other top-four challengers.
However, Spurs suffered a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea in previous league fixture and they will be looking to bounce back this weekend as they aim at gaining confidence to take on their top-four battle.
Meanwhile Brighton have been inconsistent this season and sit ninth in the Premier League standings on 30 points collected form their 22 matches, four points off eight-placed Brighton and 10th-placed Leicester City.
They have been draw specialists this season and they have draws in four of their last six matches across competitions making them a hard team to beat. Though, they need to turn the draws into wins if they are to maintain a top-half place.
The Saturday clash provides a perfect distraction form the Premier League and the Seagulls will look to use the chance to bounce back as they aim at building their confidence ahead of the coming hectic Premier league schedule.
