Bet on Brighton vs Newcastle

Will United Move Closer to Champions League Qualification?

Brighton still have eyes for Europe, but a recent blip in form has seen them slip nine points behind the top five. After no wins in six league and cup games, the Seagulls ended the run with a 3-2 home victory over West Ham United last time out.

Newcastle are sitting pretty in third after 19 wins, five draws, and ten defeats. With the top five booking their place in UEFA’s elite club competition for next season, Howe’s boys will fancy their chances.

Albion’s win over the Hammers was their first Premier League victory since a 2-1 home success over Fulham on March 8th. However, in over three months, they have suffered just one league reverse at the Amex.

United responded from their shock 4-1 loss at Aston Villa with a comfortable win against Ipswich Town. The Magpies were too hot for the Tractor Boys to handle, with Alexander Isak, Dan Burn, and William Osula on target in the 3-0 win at St James’.

Recent Brighton & Hove Albion vs Newcastle United Head-to-Head Results

The pair have already met twice this season, with Brighton winning both. Danny Welbeck scored the only goal in the reverse Premier League fixture in October. The Seagulls then won at St James’ in the FA Cup in March.

Brighton have a solid recent record in this fixture, unbeaten in four (three wins, one draw). United’s last success over Albion was a 4-1 victory at St James’ in May 2023.

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Newcastle United Betting Tips & Predictions

The Amex is a tough place to visit, and Newcastle have struggled against Brighton in recent times, but we are backing the away side to secure a vital three points from this one.

You can get the away win at the decent betting price of 2.28. Also, take a punt on both teams to score on Sunday at 1.49.
