Bournemouth and Brighton Clash for a Place on the Top Half of the Table
2717

Several teams will be hoping to finish in the top half of the Premier League this season and the fight continues this weekend.

The game between Bournemouth and Brighton will be played at the Vitality Stadium on the 28th of April. The hosts begin the weekend in 10th place on 45 points while the visitors are in 11th place on 44 points.

Bournemouth come into the match having defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0 away in the Premier League on Wednesday night.

The only goal of the game was scored in the 37th minute and despite being down to 10 men for the final 11 minutes, The Cherries held on to take maximum points.

The victory at Wolves means Bournemouth are undefeated in 7 of their 9 most recent Premier League fixtures.

There have been wins over Luton Town, Everton, and Crystal Palace at home plus Burnley away.

Bournemouth also picked up a point thanks to a 2-2 draw at home with Manchester United but have tasted defeat at Luton Town and Aston Villa.

Trends show Bournemouth are undefeated in their last 5 home Premier League fixtures. They have won 3 of those 5 games and have seen both teams score in 4 of those 5 matches.

Brighton make the trip across the south coast to the Vitality Stadium on the back of a 4-0 home defeat at the hands of Manchester City on the Thursday night.

It took the defending champions just 17 minutes to open the scoring and they added two further goals before the interval.

Into the second half and Manchester City scored their fourth goal in the 62nd minute to end the slim hopes of Brighton getting back into the match.

The defeat to Manchester City means Brighton have failed to win any of their 5 most recent fixtures in the Premier League.

There have been defeats against Liverpool away and Arsenal at home plus draws with Brentford and Burnley away.

The stats show Brighton have won only 1 of their last 11 away Premier League matches.

The win came at Sheffield United and Brighton are undefeated in 3 of their 5 most recent league games on the road, drawing each of their last 2 Premier League away trips.

The Seagulls have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 2 away Premier League fixtures.

Team news: Bournemouth are without suspended defender Milos Kerkez. Romain Faivre, Luis Sinisterra, Tyler Adams, Chris Mepham, Marcus Tavernier, and Ryan Fredericks are all in the treatment room.

Brighton travel without several injured players, including Pervis Estupiñán, Tariq Lamptey, Evan Ferguson, Billy Gilmour, Jack Hinshelwood, Kaoru Mitoma, and James Milner.

There is little to separate the teams in the league table and we expect there to be little between them on the pitch. This is a game that could see both teams find the back of the net and we predict the match to end level, with 1-1 a potential correct score.
