Brighton vs Southampton Prediction & Betting tips
Brighton want to finally win against Southampton at home. So far this season the Seagulls have not been granted this. Only Sheffield has not yet scored a three on their own territory. The weekday could definitely help with this endeavor. Apparently the Saints don’t like to play on a Monday.
The last time a Monday game was played victoriously 18 years ago. Since then, seven defeats and seven draws have had to be booked as an expandable balance sheet. For the match between Brighton and Southampton, the tip includes that the doorbell will ring on both sides.
For the first time since February this year, spectators are again admitted to the Amex Stadium.
Brighton:
The Seagulls recently annoyed the champions themselves: The Reds had to be content with a 1-1 draw on their guest appearance on the south coast. However, Brighton was connected to several football gods in the draw: Liverpool were denied two goals by the VAR and Albion only equalized in stoppage time.
On the other hand, it was not entirely undeserved. The blue-whites played very committed and courageous. A plus point this season is the unpredictability in attack: Chelsea alone has a higher number in their own squad with eleven different goalscorers.
At Brighton, however, there are already nine, which means that the Seagulls’ goal danger is spread over numerous shoulders. Only Neal Maupay with four and Solly March with two goals have more than one sense of achievement.
The Saints should focus on one player in particular. We’re talking about Danny Welbeck. The striker has scored four goals in the last three duels with Southampton and has also provided two more!
After an injury break at the start of the season, the striker has been available for four rounds and on the penultimate matchday he scored a goal in the first match over the full distance in the win against Aston Villa. Overall, he has already scored five times against the upcoming opponent and thus more often than against any other team in his career.
In view of this, the odds for another goal by Welbeck against his favorite opponent are also interesting in the encounter between Brighton and Southampton.
