Spurs Under 18’s versus Brighton & Hove Albion: (match preview)

Spurs’ Under 18 side face Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday morning (the game starts at 11:30am), in their first competitive home game of the season. Stuart Lewis’ side have won two of their opening three games from all competitions, since the season started last month. Brighton have won one and drawn two of their three opening Premier League South games of this season. Brighton are always a difficult team to face at this level, although Spurs’ Under 18 side haven’t lost a competitive match to them since 2019. Spurs’ most recent win at this level came against Blackburn Rovers in the Under 18 Premier League Cup, a group-stage fixture which they won 3-0, just before the recent international break. The Brighton game tomorrow should be a really interesting game, as Stuart Lewis’ side look to make it three wins in a row. I would like to wish the Spurs team all the very best for the game.

My predicted lineup: (4-3-3) Bloedorn, Black, Chaplin (c), Rowswell, King, Willhoft-King, Olusesi, Hall, Irow, Moore, Akhamrich.

Substitutes from: Krasniqi, Arganese-McDermott, Morgan, James, Lehane.

Injured/unavailable: N/A.

Doubtful: N/A.

Previous meeting: 2-2.

My score prediction: Spurs 3-1.

My one to watch: Joe Belmont (17). The Wales youth international has scored two goals and provided one assist from just three Under 18 Premier League South games this season.
