How Tottenham Hotspur could line up against Brighton & Hove Albion

Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte could make just one change to his side for Saturday's Premier League clash with Brighton & Hove Albion.

There will have to be an alteration at wing-back, with Emerson Royal suspended following his red card in the 3-1 defeat to Arsenal in the Premier League last weekend.

Emerson played the full 90 minutes against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League on Tuesday but will have to be replaced here, with Ivan Perisic potentially being moved across to the right, which might allow Ryan Sessegnon to come in for a start on the opposite side.

Djed Spence and Matt Doherty are also options in that area of the field, but it seems likely that Perisic's position will be changed in Saturday's late start.

Tottenham's injury situation remains the same, with Dejan Kulusevski, Japhet Tanganga and Lucas Moura remaining on the sidelines for the North London club.

Ben Davies is pushing to be included in the back three, but Clement Lenglet could just keep his spot alongside Cristian Romero and Eric Dier.

Meanwhile, the absence of Kulusevski will again allow Richarlison to feature alongside Harry Kane and Son Heung-min in the final third of the field.

Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup: Lloris; Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Perisic, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Sessegnon; Richarlison, Kane, Son
