His ability to intercept the ball and disrupt the opponent's play will be crucial in this match.

On the other hand, Brighton's attack boasts a formidable trio. Simon Adingra, João Pedro Junqueira de Jesus, and Evan Joe Ferguson have been instrumental in Brighton's success this season. Ferguson, with a rating of 7.60, has been particularly impressive, scoring four goals from 12 shots.

Recent Form

Brighton, currently ranked 5th with 9 points, has shown a more consistent performance with a WLWW pattern in their last games.

Head-to-Head History

The head-to-head history between these two teams indicates a slight advantage for Brighton. In their last encounter on 4th May 2023, Brighton secured a 1-0 victory over Manchester United. The previous game on 23rd April 2023 ended in a draw, and Brighton managed a 2-1 win in the match before that on 7th August 2022.

Prediction
