Tottenham Hotspur hold a narrow 1-0 lead over Brighton at half time of the clash between the sides, but they have been far from eye-catching.
In a fitting way, the goal itself was scruffy, with Dejan Kulusevski's shot deflecting in off centre-back Christian Romero to hand Antonio Conte's side the lead and leave Brighton staring down the barrel of a sixth successive defeat in the Premier League.
And though far from Vintage Tottenham, it would prove a massive three points as they look to bounce back from defeat to a Ronaldo-inspired Manchester United at the weekend, and with Arsenal likely to drop points against Liverpool at the same time.
