Premier League reactions: Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton

Follow live coverage as Tottenham Hotspur face Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League today.

Manchester City are reigning champions after beating Liverpool to the finish line in a neck-and-neck 2021/22 title race where a comeback win on the final day of the season against Aston Villa secured a fourth title in five years for Pep Guardiola's side.

Jurgen Klopp's Reds were on course for a quadruple last season but were forced to settle for just an FA Cup and Carabao Cup win and will return trying to win the title again just as they did in 2020.

It was a dramatic season for Chelsea a year ago with Roman Abramovich now replaced by Todd Boehly as owner in west London. He will want an instant return on his hefty investment at Stamford Bridge while Tottenham, back in the Champions League, will want to kick on once more too.

It's not all about the action at the top though with Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest promoted to the top tier for 2021/22 and hoping to hold their own against the best English football has to offer and avoid the drop.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Hojbjerg made a mistake that could have lead to a goal, but almost found the back of the net up the other end of the pitch. Son plays the ball into his path on the left side of the box with Dunk getting across to block his effort.

WHAT A STOP! Lloris is forced into action for the second time. Hojbjerg is tackled on the edge of his own box with Caicedo coming away with the ball. He has options on either side but decides to shoot, with Lloris pushing the ball against the post and away.

SAVE! Lloris makes his first save of the game. The France international gets down to push away Mac Allister's low strike from the edge of the box.

Frustrating moment for the Seagulls. Gross plays a pass out to March with the ball rolling under the foot of the winger and out for a throw-in. The home fans enjoyed that one.

Brighton usually play the ball around quickly and drag the opposition around the pitch before creating an opening. However, after scoring an early goal, Spurs have sat in a low block and restricted the space that they can move into.

Spurs have drawn their last two Premier League matches despite leading in both games, drawing 3-3 at Southampton and 1-1 at Everton. They haven’t gone ahead but failed to win in three consecutive league games since April 2021 (draw with Newcastle, defeat to Man Utd, draw with Everton). They have been comfortable in the game so far.

NO GOAL! Mitoma puts the ball in the back of the net, but it will not count. The referee gives a free-kick with it hiting his arm before he striked it into the net. VAR had a long look but it will not count.
