Wolverhampton vs Brighton Prediction

Wolverhampton Form

Wolverhampton have seen it all in their last three matches. Against Leeds, they came out empty-handed in a 1-3 defeat, whereafter they avenged themselves in a 2-0 win against Everton. Their latest match saw them sharing the spoils in a 1-1 draw against Tottenham. Wolverhampton only managed one meagre home win from a possible six at Molineux Stadium in the Premier League. They also drew one and lost four of these six encounters, in which they scored seven and conceded 13 goals.

Wolverhampton entered the season hunting for a title, however they find themselves far off track at this stage.

Brighton Form

Brighton look well suited to take on any opponent as their last three matches ended with a draw and two wins. They started off drawing 2-2 with Tottenham, before downing first Barnsley by 0-6, then Chelsea in a 1-3 win. Brighton managed a decent return of three wins in their last six Premier League away matches, in which they scored 12 while also conceding ten times. They also experienced zero draws and three defeats.

The Seagulls have already squandered enough points to put themselves under pressure, if they are to challenge for the title seriously in the Premier League this season.

Head-to-head encounters tend to bring out the best in both sides, and we fully expect the trend to continue, when Wolverhampton renew Brighton their acquaintance.

Wolverhampton have a record of zero wins, one draw and five defeats in the Premier League this season. Brighton enjoy a record of two wins, two draws and two defeats in the Premier League.
