The Seagulls set to strengthen top-ten spot in Premier League

The Seagulls set to strengthen top-ten spot in Premier League

Brighton host Stoke City at the Amex Stadium on Monday night in the Premier League, as Chris Hughton’s side looks to consolidate their position in the league’s top-ten.

The Seagulls are currently eighth in the table after a four-game unbeaten run in the English top-flight. Last time out the team from the south coast recorded a 1-0 win at Swansea City.

Brighton’s recent Premier League games have been low scoring, with five of their last six games producing under 2.5 goals.

The home side have suffered just one home defeat at the AMEX Stadium this season, which was against league leaders Manchester City. They are also currently on a run of four games unbeaten on home soil in the league.

Their last two home games in the league have finished in draws against Everton and Southampton. The Seagulls home games in the league have been low scoring, as four of their five games on home soil this season have produced under 2.5 goals.

Stoke head into this game in 13th place in the Premier League table. However, a win would move the Potters level on points with the home side.

The Potters recent form has been patchy in the league. Last time out Mark Hughes’ side threw away a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with Leicester at the Bet365 Stadium.

The visitor’s recent Premier League games have been high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in seven of their last eight games in the English top-flight.

Stoke’s recent away record in the Premier League is poor, as they have won just two of their last 13 games on their travels in the English top-flight. However, the Potters ended a four-game run without an away win last time out with a 1-0 win at Watford.

Brighton are starting to look more comfortable in the Premier League and Forebet predicts that the Seagulls will record a victory in this clash to strengthen their position in the Premier League’s top-ten.
