Brighton Seagulls Aim for Victory Against Southampton in Premier League Clash

Brighton: Brighton and Hove Albion will play against Southampton, who are at the bottom of the Premier League, on Friday night. The Seagulls are eager to win, as three points will move them to second place in the league before the weekend matches.

Brighton has been performing well this season, winning four of their last six games. They currently sit in fifth place, just one point behind Manchester City. With no teams above them playing until Saturday, this is a great chance for Brighton to show their progress.

On the other hand, Southampton needs a win to stay close to teams above the relegation zone. They have struggled this season, with only one win in twelve matches, leaving them five points behind safety. Their last game saw them leading against Liverpool before losing 3-2.

Southampton has not earned any points away from home this season and has only scored three goals. In contrast, Brighton is unbeaten at home and recently defeated Manchester City in their last match at the AmEx Stadium.

The match will kick off at 8 PM GMT on Friday, November 29. Fans can watch the game live on Sky Sports Premier League and Main Event. Those without a Sky subscription can use a NOWTV Day Pass to watch the match.

In terms of team news, Brighton will miss Carlos Baleba due to suspension after his red card last weekend. Solly March and James Milner are also injured, and there are doubts about several other players. However, Brighton has a strong squad, so they should manage well.

Southampton also has a long injury list, including Adam Lallana and Aaron Ramsdale. Paul Onuachu is a doubt after getting injured in the last match against Liverpool. If he is fit, he is likely to start, as he played well in that game.

The predicted lineups for the match are as follows:
Brighton: Verbruggen, Veltman, Van Hecke, Julio, Estupinan, Ayari, Wieffer, Rutter, Pedro, Mitoma, Welbeck.
Southampton: McCarthy, Walker-Peters, Harwood-Bellis, Stephens, Manning, Aribo, Downes, Fernandes, Dibling, Armstrong, Onuachu.

Brighton is favored to win with odds of 4/9, while a draw is at 41/10, and Southampton is at 13/2. Many expect Brighton to have a comfortable win, predicting a score of 3-0 against Southampton.
