Bournemouth vs Brighton Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 28th April 2024

With both Bournemouth and Brighton sitting comfortably mid-table, both teams will be out to strengthen their position when facing off this coming Sunday at Vitality Stadium. Three more points could prove valuable in achieving their targets for this Premier League campaign.

Brighton got hammered last time out and have no intention of letting that go by unnoticed. Bournemouth need to strap up before the ride this coming Sunday, as the visitors look for revenge.

Bournemouth step into their next home match this coming Sunday having scored a nice average of 1.6 goals in ten matches. They managed a total of 16 goals, while also allowing 14 goals against. That is an average of 1.4 goals against per match. They were able to hang on to a clean sheet three times in those matches.

Brighton travel to their next Premier League match, averaging a lowly one goals per game in their last ten matches. They scored a disappointing total of ten goals, while also conceding 16 goals. That amounts to an average of 1.6 per game, in which they kept their opponents from scoring three times.

Brighton got the better of Bournemouth in the last two h2h meetings, winning by 3-1 and 2-0, respectively.

Bournemouth vs Brighton Prediction

Bournemouth Form

Bournemouth hope for some consistency, as their last three matches added four points to their account. A meeting with Manchester United resulted in a 2-2 draw, followed by a 3-1 defeat against Aston Villa, before beating Wolverhampton by 0-1. Bournemouth claimed a middle-of-the-road three wins in their previous six matches on home soil in the Premier League. They also drew two and lost one, as they scored 11 and conceded nine goals.

Brighton Form

Brighton were only able to take one point from their past three games. They came up short in a 0-3 defeat against Arsenal before drawing 1-1 with Burnley. They were defeated once again, when Manchester City ran out 0-4 winners. Brighton only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Premier League. In these six matches they drew two and lost three as well as being outscored by eight goals to eight.

In our opinion, current form favours Bournemouth slightly more than current odds with the bookmakers suggest. We back them to claim a home win against Brighton this coming Sunday.

Bournemouth took 33 points from their last 18 encounters with teams from the bottom half of the Premier League table. This amounts to ten wins after scoring 32 times and conceding 26. Brighton won four matches and picked up 14 points from their last 15 encounters with teams in the top half of the Premier League. They scored 22 goals and conceded 34. Bournemouth are looking at a record of 12 wins, nine draws and 13 defeats in the Premier League this season. Brighton have a record of 11 wins, 11 draws and 11 defeats in the Premier League.

Bournemouth vs Brighton Betting Tips

It has been a superb season for Dominic Solanke so far as he managed to score impressive 18 goals across all tournaments during the current campaign. He appears to be in great form currently, as he hit the target three times in his last six games, and Bournemouth rely on his abilities against Brighton. Siding with him to find the back of the net this coming Sunday seems like a decent punt.

Brighton claimed two wins, two draw and six defeats in their last 10 games away. Both teams have been quite terrible at keeping their opponents at bay in recent matches. While Bournemouth managed to keep a clean sheet in two of the games at Vitality Stadium, Brighton kept their opponent from scoring in two of their last 10 away games.
