Why English Premier League Games Are Very Difficult To Predict

3y ago

Having escaped relegation last season, finishing 15^th on the standings, Brighton guaranteed themselves another year of Premier League football, at the least. This time around, their ambitions remain to same – to secure top-flight survival come season-end.

So far, it is fair to say the Seagulls aren’t pulling enough weight to realize their aims for the campaign as they sit awfully close to the drop-zone. With only two points and a place separating them from the relegation places, brace yourselves for a Brighton masterclass here.

West Ham vs Brighton Team News

Flirting around the drop-zone throughout last season, it appeared West Ham’s time in the English top-flight was bound to come to an end. However, Moyes was brought in to shake things up a bit as the Hammers held out for survival.

This season, West Ham aren’t in the mood for beers and skittles; and are charging for a top-half table finish. In fact, as things stand, Moyes’ charges are well in the running for continental qualification, and could well realize this massive dream.

Still too early to draw conclusions, the Hammers will have to keep their heads down as they strive to secure European qualification this term. With a decent return of 21 points from 14 games, the London club are placed 10^th on the standings.

In their previous clash against Chelsea, they were expected to give the Blues a tough game, perhaps matching them toe-to-toe. However, affairs didn’t quite pan out in this manner as the Irons were comfortably dispatched.

A strike from Silva and Tammy Abraham brace were enough to send West Ham sinking as they relinquished all three points to their cross-town rivals. Against a less formidable side in Brighton, Moyes’ men should have enough quality to rise to victory this weekend.

From the look of things, Brighton are likely to be involved in a relegation dog-fight this term, considering their horrendous start to the season. These ones have a couple of talented players in their ranks, but are struggling to keep things ticking on-the-pitch.

Could the Seagulls’ squabbles this season be as a result of Potter’s incompetence? – a manager who hasn’t quite shown his credentials at this level of football. With pressure growing on the English gaffer, he will be desperate to bring his faltering side on the right track as soon as possible.

West Ham vs Brighton Predictions

It goes without saying that it has been a tumultuous campaign for Brighton who have posted a measly two wins from 14 matches. That said, they are still in with a shout at victory in this fixture versus a pretty inconsistent West Ham side.

The Hammers have been in imperious form so far, and are proving to be one of the top dogs in the Premier League. We expect West Ham to bag all three points in a cagey affair in Brighton & Hove.
