Hughton confident Brighton can pick up points against top-six

Chris Hughton believes Brighton will be able to win points in their final five games of the season.

The Seagulls, who are seven points clear of the drop zone, will play Tottenham, Liverpool, both Manchester clubs and seventh-placed Burnley in their final five games.

Hughton told The Argus: "We are capable. The top six are the top six because they are the best teams with the best players, so we know the magnitude of all of these games.

"But we've played very well against Arsenal and managed to get a result. The top six will lose games, perhaps some they don't expect to lose, and we have to go into the (Tottenham) game with that type of mentality."
