Correct Score Prediction
Brighton started the season on fire, with back-to-back 4-1 wins against Luton and Wolves putting the Seagulls top of the league, before a 3-1 home loss to West Ham sent them back to reality.
Newcastle started with a 5-1 win over Aston Villa before losing 1-0 to Manchester City and 2-1 to 10-man Liverpool. Both sides have goals in abundance and have shown defensive weaknesses.

1×2 Predictions
Despite losing 3-1 to West Ham, Brighton will still be confident in their ability to win. Roberto De Zerbi’s side tended to perform better against the big six, doing the double over Manchester United and Chelsea, beating Arsenal away, and taking four points off Liverpool. Newcastle have lost their only away game vs Manchester City. However, it is hard to separate the two teams.

Our Analysis of the Brighton vs Newcastle Match
After both teams achieved European football last season, they sit 10th and 12th. Roberto De Zerbi has an exciting team at his disposal and has won plaudits for his attacking philosophy.
Albion lead the league in xG while also conceding the third-most xG. In goal, Jason Steele and Bart Verbruggen look set to compete for the number one shirt. De Zerbi is left with a dilemma at right back, with James Milner struggling against West Ham and Joel Veltman shining off the bench. The maurauding left back, Pervis Estupinan, will retain his place, as will captain Lewis Dunk. JP Van Hecke and Igor will fancy their chances of starting at centre back after a sub-par Adam Webster performance against West Ham.
Billy Gilmour will be partnered by either Pascal Gross or new signing Carlos Baleba in the double pivot. Solly March and Kauro Mitoma should retain their positions on the wing, with Joao Pedro likely to replace Danny Welbeck in the starting lineup.
Newcastle will hope to line up with their familiar back line, but the injury to Sven Botman is likely to affect this, with Dan Burn filling in at centre back and Matt Targett at left back. A midfield of Joelinton, Bruno Guimaraes, and Sandro Tonali is the envy of a lot of teams.
Anthony Gordan is slowly starting to justify his hefty price tag, while Alexander Isak will be hoping to add to his 10 goals scored last campaign.
Top Scorers Predictions for Brighton vs Newcastle
Solly March has started the season in great goalscoring form, scoring against Luton before bagging a brace against Wolves. The winger scored seven goals last season before his season was curtailed early due to injury.
Solly March 5.0
Short headline on the predicted winning team
Newcastle are slight favourites (2.52) to win the game. Eddie Howe’s side came 4th last season and were unlucky to lose to Manchester City and Liverpool. Brighton are fresh off a 3-1 dismantling by West Ham so confidence will be low.
