Despite occupying 10th place in the rankings, Brighton has been playing well recently. At least in the last two matches, Graham Potter's team remains unbeaten. Amazingly, two North London teams, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspurs, were arrested successively.
One Seagulls player from Thursday's game deserves special mention, as the statistics show. It is Leandro Trossard who has stood out the most in Brighton's last two matches.
