Tottenham vs Brighton | Predicted Lineup:

From The Argus’ live reporting of Hürzeler’s press conference:

Decision on left wing.

Says Mitoma to start is an option.

But what he says next suggests he will be on the bench.

"We know he can change a game but Minteh has been showing some really good performances."

Brighton vs. Liverpool | Predicted Lineup:

11/11. Minteh on the left is the more risk-averse (and cross-heavy) option, since it keeps him away from Hume (where he could risks being dispossessed) and can build upon existing connections/relationships.

Minteh’s better on the right if you need an outlet (which Brighton do).

That'll do it

I think there’s a decent chance Milner starts ahead of Mitoma if Mitoma isn’t fit (picture 1).

Dunk’s involvement in training appeared to be limited, meaning you have to bake in some chance of Boscagli/Igor starting (picture 2).

And if both scenarios occur, you have picture 3.

Brentford vs. Brighton | Predicted Lineup:

Jan Paul van Hecke missed out vs. Palace with a “small” hamstring issue as a “precautionary” decision. Hürzeler hopes he’ll be back for Villa.
