Before proudly parading their Europa League trophy to the home crowd, Tottenham Hotspur conclude their worst-ever Premier League season at home to Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday.
While Spurs are already in party mode after beating Manchester United 1-0 in Wednesday’s final, the Seagulls remain in the hunt for their own place in Europe, and here Sports Mole provides details of how to tune into the event.
What time does Tottenham vs. Brighton kick off?
The first whistle will blow at 4pm on Sunday, not just in Tottenham’s battle with Brighton, but in all 10 Premier League games taking place on May 25.
The Lilywhites have won each of their last four Premier League matches on the final day, but they could also become the first team to lose as many as 22 matches in one season in the competition and not be relegated.
Where is Tottenham vs. Brighton being played?
The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will be the venue for Tottenham’s final-day meeting with Brighton, where the atmosphere ought to be the most jovial it has ever been since the venue opened in 2019.
The Lilywhites faithful have also witnessed their side beat Brighton seven times in their last eight home meetings in the Premier League, although the Seagulls fought back from 2-0 down to win 3-2 at the Amex earlier this season.
How to watch Tottenham vs. Brighton in the UK
TV channels
Unfortunately for Lilywhites fans and Seagulls supporters, Tottenham’s battle with Brighton has not been selected for live TV broadcast in the UK.
Instead, Sky Sports will be showing Liverpool vs. Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest vs. Chelsea, while TNT Sports have chosen to air Manchester United’s home match against Aston Villa.
Online streaming
Likewise, Tottenham’s showdown with Brighton will not be shown on any online streaming or subscription services, although the clubs themselves will offer live audio commentary to their members.
Furthermore, Sky Sports’ Soccer Saturday programme will cover the event with commentary from a former player, while clubs and journalists’ social media accounts will provide live updates throughout.
Highlights
While this match is not being shown on live TV, the Sky Sports YouTube channel will upload highlights shortly after full time, as will the official Tottenham and Brighton accounts.
Extended highlights – potentially up to 10 minutes long – could feature on the winning team’s channel, and BBC’s Match of the Day programme will also showcase the best moments and analysis at 10.30pm on Sunday evening.
What is at stake for Tottenham and Brighton on the final day?
The result of this match will no doubt pale into insignificance for Spurs fans, but their 17th-placed side could still rise as high as 14th, as they are one point below Man United, two worse off than West Ham United and three below Wolverhampton Wanderers.
However, Brighton need a point to be sure of an eighth-placed finish, which may provide a pathway to the Conference League; the Seagulls are three points better off than Brentford but boast an inferior goal difference to the Bees, who take on Wolves at Molineux on the final day.
