Brighton welcomes Bournemouth to the south coast for a Premier League clash under the lights, with both teams eager to boost their hopes of securing a European spot.
Brighton vs Bournemouth Form and Head to Head Record
The Seagulls are currently 11th in the league, sitting four points outside the European places, while Bournemouth are in 15th. Brighton's most recent match was a 1-1 draw away to Manchester City in the Premier League, showcasing their resilience. Brighton have a knack for coming back from behind, recovering points from a losing position more often than any other team in the league this season. Meanwhile, Bournemouth ended an 11-game winless run in the league by beating Tottenham 3-2 at home. However, their away form remains a concern, with only one win on the road this season.
Looking back, Bournemouth edged out Brighton 2-1 when the sides met earlier this season. Brighton, however, have dominated recent home meetings, winning their last four against Bournemouth at the AMEX. In fact, the Cherries haven't won at Brighton since April 2019. Over the last six meetings between the two teams, Brighton have won four matches compared to Bournemouth's two.

Brighton have a number of injury concerns, with Tzimas, Webster, and Wieffer all sidelined. March is also doubtful. Welbeck has been key to Brighton's attack, leading the team with eight league goals. Mitoma seems to enjoy playing Bournemouth, having scored more Premier League goals against them than any other club.

Brighton vs Bournemouth Match Prediction
This match looks set to be an open and exciting encounter, with both teams capable of finding the net. Brighton have shown resilience at home, while Bournemouth will be buoyed by their recent win against Tottenham. Both sides are also among the most ill-disciplined in the league, suggesting a physical battle.
Brighton are strong at creating chances through individual skill. Bournemouth, however, will likely score from a direct free kick.
I'm predicting a 2-1 victory for Brighton.
