15/10/2023 6:00 pm
Tottenham Hotspur Ladies will be looking to record a third successive victory across all competitions when they travel to the Amex Stadium to face Brighton & Hove Albion Women on Sunday in the Women’s Super League.
Meanwhile, the Seagulls will be looking to secure a second straight win after beating Birmingham City 3-0 in Wednesday’s League Cup encounter.
Brighton manager Melissa Phillips has experienced a steady start to her first full season in charge, having overseen two victories and one loss in three competitive matches.
The Seagulls got their campaign up and running with a narrow 2-1 away victory over Everton, before their first home game of the season produced a disappointing 2-0 defeat to West Ham United.
Phillips’ side went back on their travels in midweek, and it proved to be a successful trip after goals from Charlize Rule, Katie Robinson and Elisabeth Terland guided Brighton to a 3-0 victory over second-tier Birmingham City in the League Cup.
While they have won both of their away matches this season, Brighton have lost their last three home league matches, including defeats to Arsenal and Leicester City in the closing stages of the 2022-23 season.
The Seagulls have won two of their last three home matches against Tottenham Hotspur, but they will want to forget their most recent home encounter in October 2022 when they were thrashed 8-0 in what proved to be the final game of Hope Powell’s reign.
Robert Vilahamn began his tenure as Tottenham manager with a 2-1 defeat to London rivals Chelsea, but his side have bounced back from that result to secure successive victories.

Since thrashing Brighton 8-0 in October 2022, Tottenham have lost eight and drawn one of their last nine away matches in the WSL.
