Hello and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of the Premier League clash between Brighton and Tottenham. Well, this will be an interesting one. Coming into the game off the back of THAT 7-2 thrashing at the hands of German champions Bayern Munich, Mauricio Pochettino simply must get a response from his fragile players. Spurs haven't won on the road in the league since January - now would be a reasonably good time to do just that.
