Brighton vs. Spurs (Thursday, 7.30pm)

The title outsiders meet the European outsiders at the Amex Stadium on Thursday night, as Brighton & Hove Albion welcome Tottenham Hotspur to the South Coast.

The Seagulls were held to a 1-1 stalemate by historic rivals Crystal Palace in their last pre-Christmas affair, while Ange Postecoglou's men scraped a nervy 2-1 win over Everton.

We say: Brighton & Hove Albion 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur

Still displaying an affinity for both scoring and conceding in the top flight, Brighton can trouble a Spurs backline that was fortunate to only concede the one goal against Everton, especially with lingering concerns around the fitness of Romero.

However, the Brighton medical team have not been afforded any festive respite either, and with De Zerbi's side still far too open at the back, Postecoglou's men can fight fire with even more fire to prevail.

Arsenal vs. West Ham (Thursday, 8.15pm)

As was the case in 2022, London rivals Arsenal and West Ham United meet at the Emirates Stadium for their first post-Christmas Premier League fixture on Thursday evening.

The Gunners spent December 25 atop the table thanks to a 1-1 draw with Liverpool on Saturday evening, prior to which the Irons ran out 2-0 winners over an off-colour Manchester United.

We say: Arsenal 2-1 West Ham United

Arsenal deserved nothing and got nothing from their EFL Cup battle with West Ham several weeks ago, but with Premier League points on the line at the Emirates Stadium, Arteta's men are a different proposition entirely.

A resilient West Ham unit will still make life difficult for Arteta's men, but the Irons have not kept a top-flight clean sheet on the road since April, and such shortcomings will likely prove fatal in North London.
