Tottenham can move up to 16th place with victory over Roberto De Zerbi's former side Brighton and Hove Albion, who they host in the Premier League on Saturday evening.
Albion are in red-hot form having won five of their past six matches and they also held Spurs to a dramatic 2-2 draw at the Amex back in September when Tottenham fought back from 2-0 down to rescue a point.
Now the situation is desperate for the Europa League winners as they head into the contest in the relegation zone and without a top-flight win since December 28.
Additionally, Tottenham have won just two home matches in the Premier League all season and have not tasted victory on home soil since December 6 when they ran out 2-0 winners over Brentford.
You can keep up to date with all the latest updates from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as we build towards kick-off at 5:30pm.

Tottenham team news is in
Roberto De Zerbi has made four changes to the Tottenham side that lost 1-0 at Sunderland.
Xavi Simons, Rodrigo Bentancur, Yves Bissouma, Kevin Danso come in for Richarlison, Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall and Cuti Romero drop out.
Importantly, James Maddison returns to the squad, which nobody really saw coming.
Great news for Tottenham, though it's unclear whether he will get minutes today.

Hello
Welcome to our live coverage of Tottenham vs Brighton!
As you may already be aware, Leeds are currently beating Wolves 2-0 at Elland Road.
If they hold onto that lead and run out victors, they will move nine points clear of Spurs.
Not ideal news heading into what is an absolutely huge game.
