Brighton vs Wolves prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2024-10-25 14:00.
[p]After stringing together a four-match winless run which threatened to rock their campaign, Brighton have bounced back by posting back-to-back wins against sides who finished in the top-seven last season. They seek to make it three successive Premier League victories for the first time since September 2023 against Wolves, a side they’ve beaten in four of the last five league H2Hs (D1). [/p]
[p]The Seagulls have already beaten Wolves this season too, emerging 3-2 victors in the Carabao Cup, a result which forms part of Brighton’s unbeaten home record this term (W4, D2). The chances of that run continuing would appear plentiful as the only Midlands-based club to leave the Amex Stadium victorious since the start of 2022 is Aston Villa![/p]
[p]The prospects of Wolves making that two clubs appears slim to say the least, as they have only ever won three of their 20 away league games against Brighton (D8, L9). All three of those wins came by the same 1-0 scoreline, but for a Wolves side who have conceded more Premier League goals than any other side this season (23), a 1-0 victory on the south coast seems nothing more than a pipe dream. [/p]
[p]Bottom of the table, the clock is ticking on Gary O’Neil’s spell in the Molineux hotseat, as he comes under increasing pressure to turn things around. An FA probe into comments he made insinuating an unconscious bias towards the big clubs in the Premier League serves as an added distraction as they bid to avoid becoming the first side since Manchester City in 1960 to lose six-successive top-flight games despite scoring in each. [/p]
[p]Key battle: Brighton’s Lewis Dunk is in line to make his 250th Premier League appearance here. If he’s to mark the occasion with a goal, it could be a header, as that’s how eight of his last nine top-flight goals were scored. He’ll be marshalling Wolves’ Jørgen Strand Larsen, who has been involved in four goals in his last seven Premier League appearances (G3, A1), but ended on the losing side in all four games he contributed to a goal.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Brighton have won just 12 of their 45 Premier League matches against teams starting the day in the relegation zone.[/p]
