Spurs survived a scare against Morecambe in the last round, helped by the introduction of Harry Kane, who has scored 11 goals in his last 11 FA Cup appearances. Brighton needed extra time to see off Championship side West Brom. Graham Potter continues to impress with Brighton though, and continuing their cup run would only underline this further. Sitting comfortably mid-table in the league, can they follow Leicester City and be a club outside the big-six that manages to go all the way?

Antonio Conte’s men may have aspirations of finishing in the Premier League’s top four this season, but also know they need to try and end the club’s 14-year trophy drought. Having been knocked out of the League Cup at the semi-final stage, this remains their only chance of silverware this season.

They will be bolstered by two January signings. Both Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski are fit and available for the home side, although neither is likely to start. Conte has made it clear he wants them to have a chance to integrate more fully with their new teammates, and Bentancur has been away on international duty, scoring for Uruguay against Venezuela. Alongside the new signings, Son Heung-Min and Cristian Romero are back from injury following the winter break.

Dan Burn has flown away from the Seagulls, joining Newcastle in the January transfer window. Their main signing, Deniz Undav, remains on loan with his former team, Belgian side Royale Union Saint-Gilloise for the rest of the season. They are unbeaten in six league games, although only two of those are victories.

The two sides have only met once before in the FA Cup. In January 2005 goals from Ledley King and Robbie Keane were enough to give Tottenham Hotspur a 2-1 win. Indeed, Spurs have won all of the last seven home games in all competitions against Brighton, a run that started back in 1982.

The Tottenham Hotspur vs Brighton livestream is likely to be a highly competitive cup clash under the lights. We will show you how to watch it below.
