Brighton will be back in front of their home fans on Wednesday evening, as they look for a second win in three matches. They will come up against a Brentford side that were convincing winners in their previous match against Luton.
Premier League Preview
Brighton will look to bounce back to winning ways on Wednesday when they welcome Brentford to the Amex Stadium. The Seagulls have found wins hard to come by in recent weeks, as they have landed just a single victory from their last six Premier League matches. They were unable to land a second straight win in their previous fixture, as they were edged out in a thrilling encounter at Stamford Bridge by Chelsea.
Brentford finally got back to winning ways over the weekend, as they ended a two-game losing sequence by securing a 3-1 home win against Brentford. That was the response that Thomas Frank would have been expecting from his side, as it moved them up to eleventh place in the standings. A second straight win could see them end the round in the top half.
The Bees have been impressive in recent midweek matches in the Premier League, as they have suffered just one defeat from their five matches in the middle of the week last season. However, they claimed just two victories from those fixtures, with two ending in draws.
Brighton have a decent record in midweek matches, as they have won four of their last seven. Meanwhile, the Seagulls have been in strong home form over recent weeks, as they are unbeaten in their last five at the Amex. However, each of their previous three home matches have ended in draws. They haven’t been held to four straight home draws since November 2017.
Brighton vs Brentford Head to Head
Brighton landed victories in each of their two Premier League matches against Brentford. However, they failed to win both league meetings with their rivals last term. Meanwhile, Brentford have won just two of their previous nine away league matches against the Seagulls, with their most recent success coming in the Championship in September 2016.
Brighton vs Brentford Prediction
Brentford’s away record in this fixture is a concern coming into this showdown. Therefore, it looks worthwhile to keep faith with the home side, as they look to end their run of three straight draws in home matches at the Amex.
