Tottenham Hotspur vs Brighton: Previous Meetings & Stats
Tottenham Hotspur currently sits seventh in the Women’s Super League, with a win over Brighton possibly propelling them to fifth place. However, The Spurs are on a terrible streak, losing to Everton, Manchester United, Arsenal and Manchester City in their recent matches. So far, the team only secured two wins in 2025.
Brighton had an impressive start of the season but struggled to maintain that form in the new year. Out of their last eight games, they’ve lost five, drawn two and claimed one win over Durham. However, their performance against Chelsea was very promising as they held the current league leader to a 2-2 draw. Can they continue that form against The Spurs?
Brighton is yet to win an away match at Tottenham Hotspur. The only two wins against them were in 2021 at home. Since then, Brighton suffered three losses and drawn three times against The Spurs.
