While most fans are focused on the Premier League title race, I want to draw attention to the mid-table clash between Brighton & Hove Albion and Newcastle United, set to take place at the American Express Stadium.
At the start of the season, Brighton earned the reputation of a “giant killer.” Fabian Hürzeler’s team managed to defeat Chelsea (3–1), Manchester City (2–1), and even take points off Tottenham Hotspur (2–2). However, their performances against weaker sides have been less convincing – such as last round’s 1–1 draw against bottom-placed Wolverhampton.
Newcastle United, on the other hand, have shown solid football this season but often fall just short of converting their play into results. It may sound cliché, but Eddie Howe’s squad really has lacked a bit of luck at times. Despite this, they remain comfortably mid-table with a record of 2 wins, 3 draws, and 2 defeats.

Prediction for the Brighton & Hove Albion vs Newcastle United
Both teams sit side by side in the standings – the hosts in 12th, the visitors in 11th. This suggests fairly even form, though the home advantage slightly favors Brighton. Still, this might be the right moment to take a risk with the odds. Given Newcastle’s streak of “bad luck,” it could be time for fortune to turn their way. My prediction: a win for Newcastle United.
