Brighton
As for Brighton, Hurzeler delivered a mixed fitness update on Friday morning, confirming that James Milner (thigh), Brajan Gruda (unspecified), Joel Veltman (illness) and long-term absentee Solly March (knee) could all be in contention for Sunday's match.
However, there will still be no Joao Pedro (ankle), Matt O'Riley (ankle) or Jan Paul van Hecke (unspecified), while Simon Adingra is also touch-and-go but should only be on the bench at best.
Palmer was not the only player to make history at Stamford Bridge last weekend; 20-year-old Brighton midfielder Baleba became the youngest Cameroonian to score and assist in a Premier League match, and he will man the engine room with fellow protege Jack Hinshelwood once more.
Brighton & Hove Albion possible starting lineup:
Verbruggen; Veltman, Dunk, Igor, Estupinan; Enciso, Baleba, Hinshelwood; Rutter, Welbeck, Mitoma
Tottenham
Tottenham captain Son Heung-min and first-choice left-back Destiny Udogie were both left at home for the win over Ferencvaros due to their recent knocks, and the former is not expected to make the cut here, but Postecoglou has confirmed that Udogie ought to be fine.
Should Son miss out once more, Spurs fans will no doubt implore Postecoglou to start 17-year-old Mikey Moore over the wasteful Timo Werner after the teenager's bright performance in midweek, but their pleas will likely fall on deaf ears.
Two other attacking options - Wilson Odobert and Richarlison - are still out injured, and Dominic Solanke leads the Tottenham line after his first call-up to the senior England squad in seven years.
Radu Dragusin is also back from his Europa League ban, but Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven - who produced an exceptional solo run for an assist at Old Trafford - are immovable at the back.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Kulusevski, Bentancur, Maddison; Johnson, Solanke, Werner
Prediction: Brighton & Hove Albion 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur
