In-form Brighton hope to move three points closer to European football when they host Everton on Saturday afternoon.
Can the Seagulls continue their positive run, or will the Toffees build on their own success from last weekend?
Brighton look to have moved past their mid-season slump after recording three consecutive victories in all competitions.
Fabian Hurzeler's side had previously gone eight games without a win over the packed Christmas period, but they were more than worthy of the three points at Old Trafford last weekend.
Eventually running out 3-1 winners, Brighton secured a third consecutive win at the historic venue to leave them in ninth and only four points from fourth.
They welcome an Everton side buoyed by a well-earned 3-2 victory at home to a struggling Spurs side last time out.
It remains to be seen whether David Moyes' side were brilliant or if the visitors were simply terrible, but the Scottish manager will be grateful to have picked up his first win in his second tenure with the club.
More triumphs are needed to distance Everton from the relegation zone, though.
The Toffees remain four points above the bottom three, but have played a game less than the other sides around them.
A recurring theme in Everton's away matches has been an inability to find the back of the net.
They've failed to score in five of their last six on the road, hence the well-documented discussions over their struggles in front of goal.
With a measly 18 goals in 21 league appearances so far, at an average of 0.86 per game, the need for recruitment in forward areas is clear for all to see.
Sure, Moyes' men were impressive in their win over Tottenham, but they're not the first side to enjoy success against Spurs in the final third.
In reality, Everton need to replicate that performance over a sustained period to convince they've overcame their goalscoring hoodoo, which they have not yet done.
Their record on the road is also poor in general. Everton have just one win in their last 21 away outings in the league and head to face a Brighton side who have lost only once at home this term.
Combining all of the above, a Brighton win 'to nil' at 19/10 looks a more than worthy punt.
Brighton winger Kaoru Mitoma has also hit form of late, scoring in each of his side's last two league appearances.
The Japan international also has two goals in four appearances against the Toffees and so getting him to score anytime at 14/5 looks a fair price to me.
