West Ham vs Brighton Prediction
In their last three matches, West Ham lost 3-1 against Brighton, 0-2 against Manchester City and 1-0 against Nottingham F.. West Ham only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent Premier League matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew two and lost two, as they scored eight and conceded nine goals.
In a season where everything runs absolutely smoothly West Ham might be able to surprise. However, a finish inside the top half of the Premier League looks the most realistic scenario.
In their three most recent outings, Brighton won 3-1 and 1-2 against West Ham and Manchester United, before drawing 0-0 against Newcastle. Brighton won four times in their last six away games in the Premier League, in which they drew once and lost once. They conceded six goals while scoring nine themselves.
In a season where everything runs absolutely smoothly Brighton might be able to surprise. However, a finish inside the top half of the Premier League looks the most realistic scenario.
Though favourites for the win, we are uncertain the current form of West Ham backs this claim. We believe there is good value in Brighton, perhaps with the backing of the draw.
