Key Highlights

Brighton Looking to End Their Winless Run in the Premier League

Brighton have lost the last two back-to-back matches in the Premier League. The losses came against Manchester City at home (0-4) and away to Bournemouth (3-0).

In their last five matches, Roberto De Zerbi’s side have gone winless and scored just once in the 1-1 draw against relegation-fighting Burnley. They have conceded 11 goals in this run of matches.

Their inability to keep clean sheets has increasingly been a problem in the run-in for De Zerbi and his men. They will look to fix this challenge ahead of hosting another in-form top-four side in Aston Villa on Sunday.

Aston Villa Look to Return to Winning Ways as They Fight for the Top-Four

After four unbeaten matches in the matches, two wins and two draws, Aston Villa are on the driving seat in the fight for the top four. 

They lead Tottenham in the race for the final Champions League by seven points, albeit the North Londoners have two matches in hand on the Villa Park side.

Ahead of the trip to Falmer Stadium, Unai Emery’s men will know that if they win the remaining three matches, they will seal a return into the Champions League.

They dropped points at home to Chelsea last time out, and they will look to return to winning ways at Brighton on Sunday.

Head-to-Head Statistics

Aston Villa have dominated this fixture in recent matches. They have beaten Brighton in the last five meetings between the two sides. The last time the two sides met, Aston Villa dismantled De Zerbi’s side 6-1 at Villa Park.

Injury Report

Brighton will be without the injured Solly March, Jack Hinshelwood, Kaoru Mitoma, and Evan Ferguson.

Aston Villa will also miss key players like Tyrone Mings, Emiliano Buendia, Boubacar Kamara, Jacob Ramsey, and Alex Moreno.

Prediction

Aston Villa will be the favorites to win the match away from home against a low-confidence and out-of-form Brighton side.
