Brighton come up against visiting side West Ham in a Premier League fixture on Saturday at The American Express Community Stadium.

Four points from six is an acceptable start to a new Premier League campaign for West Ham, who will be confident of adding to their collection this coming Saturday.

Brighton strutting like peacocks before this round tree encounter after securing two wins from two matches in the opening rounds of the new Premier League season.

Brighton have been quite good at hitting the back of the net in recent matches, while also prone to conceding the odd goal against. In their last six matches on the trot, both teams scored at least once.

Ahead of their upcoming Premier League match, West Ham have an ample average of 1.7 goals per game in their last ten matches. They scored a tolerable 17 goals, while also conceding 16 times. That amounts to an average of 1.6 per game, in which they kept their opponents from scoring two times.

Brighton not only beat their upcoming in the previous two meetings, they also kept West Ham from scoring, as they ran out 4-0 and 2-0 winners.

Brighton vs West Ham Prediction

Brighton Form

Brighton look back on their last three matches with six points to show for their efforts. Against Aston Villa, they were left empty-handed in a 2-1 defeat, but they avenged themselves by beating Luton in a 4-1 win. They followed that up with a 1-4 win against Wolverhampton in their most recent outing. Brighton claimed four wins in their last six Premier League matches at the The American Express Community Stadium. They came through these games with a record of one draw and one defeat, in which they conceded eight and scored 16 goals.

Qualification for an international tournament is the ideal scenario Brighton hope to accomplish by the end of the season, but everything needs to click for this to happen.

West Ham Form

In their last three matches, West Ham beat Fiorentina 1-2, drew 1-1 with Bournemouth and beat Chelsea by 3-1. West Ham managed to win just once in their past six away games in the Premier League. On top of winning once they also drew one as well as losing four, while scoring 12 time and letting in nine.

Qualifying for an international tournament is the dream target for West Ham, while a top half finish is the least the visitors must accomplish for their latest Premier League campaign.

Going forward, Brighton and West Ham are both in decent form, while at the same time being generous in defence. We are confident, both teams will find the back of the net this coming Saturday.
