The match

Brighton & Hove Albion and West Bromwich Albion prepare for their first Premier League meeting since 2017/18 by remaining in the bottom-five of the points tally. Brighton are 16th with four points and West Brom are 17th with two points going into the weekend games. It could be an interesting battle for full points as Graham Potter’s Seagulls are looking for their first win in four matches. Meanwhile, the promoted Baggies coached by Slaven Bilic are still searching for their first league win of the season.

Brighton left it late to secure a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace in their latest match, although it was a point well-deserved. Brighton were impressive, even in the previous two defeats – a 3-2 loss to Manchester United and a 4-2 loss to Everton. The 3-0 win over Newcastle United showcased how good the Seagulls can be on their given day. However, Brighton have lost five of their last six Premier League home matches including both this season. With Lewis Dunk suspended after his late red card against Palace, Brighton will reshuffle their pack. They are one of the seven teams yet to win at home this league season and look a good bet to correct that.

West Brom have two points this season so far, both coming at home. The 3-3 draw against Chelsea was a demoralising result as West Brom led 3-0 at half-time. New signing Karlan Grant almost made it a dream debut in the 0-0 draw against Burnley, although West Brom were lucky to get away with a point. West Brom have lost both their away games this season – a 5-2 thumping at Goodison Park and a 2-0 loss at Southampton.

Key Statistics

  • Brighton have conceded at least 3 goals in five of their last six Premier League home matches.
  • Brighton have seen over 2.5 goals scored in six of their last seven Premier League home matches.
  • West Brom have lost both their away Premier League games this season.

The bet of our experts

Brighton & Hove Albion and West Bromwich Albion are both desperate to win this match and start moving up in the table. Brighton are one of the seven teams yet to win a home game in the league this season. West Brom are one of the four sides going into the weekend yet to win a league match. That could mean an open match and over 2.5 goals remains our prime pick. As for the winner, Brighton were unlucky to have only four points and have been performing better than what their position suggests. A small wager can be had on a Brighton win.
